Debian on SheevaPlug



Hi,

I'm trying to get the Debian kernel running on the SheevaPlug.

First of all, can it currently be done at all? I have fetched
the linux-image-2.6.29-1-kirkwood package, and prepared a uboot
image with:

  mkimage -A arm -O linux -T kernel -C none -a 0x00008000
    -e 0x00008000 -d vmlinuz-2.6.29-1-kirkwood
    vmlinuz-2.6.29-1-kirkwood.uboot

Then I've tried to load it into the SheevaPlug and boot it:

  tftpboot 0x400000 vmlinuz-2.6.29-1-kirkwood.uboot
  bootm 0x400000

However, the process just stops after having uncompressed the
kernel:

  Marvell>> bootm 0x400000  0x800000
  ## Booting image at 00400000 ...
   Image Name:
   Created:      2009-04-25  19:45:34 UTC
   Image Type:   ARM Linux Kernel Image (uncompressed)
   Data Size:    1719688 Bytes =  1.6 MB
   Load Address: 00008000
   Entry Point:  00008000
   Verifying Checksum ... OK
  OK

  Starting kernel ...

  Uncompressing Linux.......................................
  ..........................................................
  .............. done, booting the kernel.


Nothing else is printed. Am I doing something obviously
wrong?


Best regards,
  Rickard Nilsson
