Hi ,

                     Thanks for your reply. I successfully build the
kernel. But when i am booting the kernel it is stopped at
"Uncompressing Linux... done, booting the kernel."

kernel package : AM35x-OMAP35x-LINUX-PSP-04.02.00.07
Arm Tool chain :arm-none-linux-gnueabi-gcc(4.5.2 version )
u-boot :version 2011 patch level 09

I had the same problem.

I have copied the source code from angstrom build environment and try
to build it with /proc/config.gz and arm-linux-gnueabi-gcc/arm-linux-
gnueabihf-gcc release 4.6. The resulting kernel is not running. When i
build the same kernel sources with the same configuration with arm-
angstrom-linux-gnueabi-gcc release 4.5.4 20111126 the resulting kernel
is booting.
