I am trying to get Linux running on the PPC of a Xilinx V4-FX12 FPGA. I am using the Linux 2.6.17.9 kernel (I have also tried 2.6.17.1 with the same results) and have gotten through the kernel initialization to the point where it mounts the root file system. At this point I can an Oops and a kernel panic. I traced the kernel and found it was happening on the gunzip of the ramdisk image. I tried without compressing the ramdisk image and I got a slightly different error. I have attached this output as well. I am not a kernel expert, but I am guessing it is having trouble accessing the RAM for the ramdisk. Can anybody offer some advice?
