linux on virtex 2 pro board

Hi All, I am trying to boot linux on virtex 2 pro P7-ff672 board. My problem is that I am able to boot the linux image(ppc) on bitstream generated by EDK

6.1 but not with bitstream generated by EDK 6.2 (SP2). Does anyone had similar experience ? I wonder if the problem is EDK 6.2 or I need to change my liuux image which should not be the case as I am using the same version of cores. Following is the only message I get on bitstream generated by 6.2 EDK.

loaded at: 00400000 0045D1E4 board data at: 0045A13C 0045A154 relocated to: 00405600 00405618 zimage at: 00405AFB 00459C4F avail ram: 0045E000 02000000

Linux/PPC load: root=/dev/nfs rw ip=on Uncompressing Linux...done. Now booting the kernel

While the same Image produce following message on 6.1 bitstream

Any pointers or suggesitions are appreciated.

Raj,

just looking at the kernel command line I would say that these are two different Linux kernels. In one case you try to boot from NFS in the other from a RAM disk.

ok, my mistake. I didnt tell that I had two linux image just to avoid any confusion. But I tried both the images (one with root=/dev/nfs and other with root=/dev/ram) and both hangs after "Now booting the kernel message".
