Hi Stepen ,
  Thanks !!!
   
  I tried to use the same sequence of RAM initialisation as is in northbridge/via/vt8601/raminit.c but i have use the legacy bios value whenever i am try to program the register you pointed out.
  I have also programmed Reg 50-55 for CPU setup with the proper value from the legacy BIOS.Did proper setting for 0xf8 and 0xf9 at the end of DRAM initialisation.
   
  Still it is not jumping. I guess i am missing somewhere in the sequence of initialisation .
  If u have any pointer , pls let me know.
  Some of the more facts , i would like to tell you
  1.I am enabling Shadow ram before starting the ram initialization. I dont know what impact it will make. Shadow ram register are 0x61, 0x62 and 0x63.
  2. After SDRAM normal operation setiing to the 0x6c register, i am setting 0x5A-0x5F and 0x56,0x57 , 0x58 with the correct value as per the legacy BIOS. (Will this impact??).
  3. I have also include the dump of northbridge device, pls have a look.
   
  ----------------------
  You were talking of Crystall Ball, can u tell me in details or any url to get this??

  This is the new log after setting the required register.

    Hi Stepen,
   
  I would like to thank you for the movitation you given to me. 
   
  A. For the conveniance of clarity, i am again recapitulate the facts/figures about my board.
  1. Northbridge: VT8605  almost similar to VT8601 or VT8603
  2.Southbridge: VT 82C686 which has integrated super I/O controller
  3. CPU: 300Mhz Celeron Processor
  4. Memory: 512 MB SDRAM
  ---------------------------------------------------------
  if any other info, pls let me know
   
  B. 
  --------
      1. In this mail, i am sending you data as much as possible for you 
           comments/suggestion   for improvment the porting process.
      2. Now i would like to ask couple of question. Since raminit does not complain any failure and ramcheck also passes ramtest.Next, code in crt0.S is able to copy the code from ROM to RAM. I am also able to read the code and print them in the serial output.So my question is, if i am able to read/write correct data to/from RAM, why is there doubt on incorrect DRAM initialisation?
  If i am not able to jump to a designated place (0x4000) in RAM simply due incorrect DRAM initialisation, then what are those things which i am not taking care of during DRAM initialization? Can u pls hightlight those area in RAMINIT so that i can re-walk those area.
   3. if really, the DRAM initialization is correct, then what are the factors that may stop/misdirect the control to jump to a correct location in RAM.
  I tried to print the contents from the RAM which is copied from the ROM to RAM in the start of crt0.S, they are byte by byte same as is for c_start.o
   
  4. Are there any role of the register like AX,BX, CX and DX & other index register while control is try to jump at ram location. For reference, i am also printed the contents of the register before jumping i.e jmp *%edi
  5. In my config, i have set DCAHE_RAM =0
   
  6. i have compared the register dump for linuxbios and legacy bios.They are not exactly same. Should i try to cpmpare the entire dump or the register dump of device 00.0 only? 
   
   
   
  B. I would also like to give you the register dump( for the Device 00.0) of legacy BIOS
       The ouput given below has been taken by lspci
