Hi

I am using LDK5910 board.which is omap processor.
With the board they have given rrload and linux-2.4.21 kernel and root file system.
I am able to load u-boot using CCStudio through windows machine using u-boot i am loading linux-2.6.20 kernel through serial port using kermit using loadb command

kermit is taking around 12minutes to load the kernel just for loading . How to make the loading process fast using kermit

Thanks & regards
Priya

Increase the console baudrate.

And consider downloading over Ethernet instead of the serial port. Serial download is kind of stone-age.

Best regards,
