[beagleboard] Re: Kernel stops after changing debug port UART3 to UART1

Hi,

I did these steps to boot the board at u-boot prompt

  1. mmcinit
  2. fatload mmc 0:1 0x81600000 ramdisk.gz
  3. setenv bootargs console=ttyS2,115200n8 console=tty0 root=/dev/ram0 rw ramdisk_size=32768 initrd=0x81600000,32M

and i booted the board by giving the command boot

the booting stoped, here is the log where it is stoped please suggest me to solve this issue.

Good news, linux kernel is booting and starting the /sbin/init script… Could you confirm that you are using Rev C. validation ramdisk.gz file…? I’ll need to rip it open and see what its doing… I suspect its doing a number of validation tests… really all we want to do is work out why /dev/mmcblk0p2 can’t be mounted as a rootfs… once that’s figured out you should be able to move to using an Angstrom image…
