Hi!
I guess Andrea wanted me to forward this....
----- Forwarded message from Andrea Adami <andrea.adami@gmail.com> ----- Date: Mon, 1 Feb 2010 13:08:44 +0100 From: Andrea Adami <andrea.adami@gmail.com> To: pavel@ucw.cz Subject: About kernel decompressors
Pavel,
I'd like to add a couple of observations in the "Uncompressing broken with commit e7db7b4270" thread. Unfortunately I wasn't subscribed and I can't properly reply to the thread...
This is for kernels 2.6.33-rc5 and -rc6 on Sharp corgi (Zaurus SL-C860, pxa255, 64M RAM)
1) after that commit neither gzip, nor lzo can decompress from NAND 2) I tested the LZMA patch and this also won't help the boot from nand 3) kernel size is uninfluent: I tested 930KiB-lzma kernels and 1240KiB gzip-kernels. 4) I tried to set stack size to 8192, still no boot
5) all the 3 above kernels boot just fine from kexec (I launch them with linux-kexecboot-2.6.26)
>From nand, the boot stops immediately after **** JUMP to LINUX! ****
Cheers
Andrea
