Question about Broadcom CFE/Debian sibyl Interaction
All,
I have a question about the interaction between the Broadcom CFE loader and the Debian sibyl loader on BCM91480b evaluation boards. The error scenario is encountered when using the CFE loader to load ramdisk images via a tftpserver. The 1480 can boot successfully on occasion, but an error scenario occurs where the 1480 LEDs will read
RUN and bootup will not progress beyond this point. I have attached a
typical console log showing where the system gets stuck.
