Porting linux on PPC 750 Cxe error after Freeing unused kernel memory: 248k init

Hi all,

We are porting linux on to a PPC750 Cxe based board. We are successful enough to get the kernel messages on to the serial console.

Following is the console ouput on the hyperterminal... No output is printed after the message "Freeing unused kernel memory: 248k init" But kernel is still alive. It is not hanging as well. Hope you can throw light on this.

The "init" process isn't printing to your console. Did you specify the console device when you booted? Try adding something like "console=ttyS0,9600" to your boot parameters.
