Hi,

Although the ARM-based Zeus (XScale PXA270) Single board computer works well for 3.2.x series kernels, it fails to boot from series 3.3.x. It attempts to boot but stops at:

"Uncompressing Linux... done, booting the kernel".

This problem is also exhibited in kernel series 3.4.x, 3.5.x, 3.6.x. The kernels are configured with zeus_defconfig and built with arm-iwmmxt-linux-gnueabi toolchain.

Please CC answers/comments posted.

Thanks & Regards,
Sanjeev N.
