Re: [LinuxBIOS] DK8-HTX hangs on boot

[Chris Stillo]

Hi Ron,

We added ram_check(0x100000,0x400000) to auto.c and it passed.

Looking at crt0.S.lb, it looks like when it executes it is taking the 
path for CONFIG_COMPRESS true, and getting hung up there. We never get 
the CONSOLE_DEBUG_TX_STRING($str_pre_main) message.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Chris

PS I changed email addresses to get away from MS Outlook... as you 
probably know it is not friendly w/ Mailman. Hopefully my replies will 
start going onto the previous thread now, instead of starting a new one.

Try disabling cache-as-ram if it is used..
