I've found that in my linux-2.4.18 kernel, there is a file arch/ppc/platforms/evb405ep.h which does include a board_info struct which is quite a bit different from the struct in u-boot.h. I've made those match and re-built the kernel, still with no luck. I've re-built U-Boot in debug mode so I can see what is going on. Here's what it spits out before the board locks up: => iminfo 500000 ## Checking Image at 00500000 ...
