Hi,<br>
<br>
--Ron,Permissions are -rwxrwxr-x for all and owner is neeraj itself.
And shared libraries are present in lib/ . Now I have placed
helloworld.elf (using printf to print helloworld, and linked with
-static option) in bin/ and changed init=/bin/helloworld , again it
says cannot execute /bin/helloworld. <br>
<br>
--John, we are using our custom hardware board, not exactly ML405 but
its more or less similar to ML405, so I cannot use bit file provided
for ML405. Till now we were using xilkernel, but now onward we are
planning to use Linux. For serial console I have no option other than
uartlite. This is how I compiled kernel :<br>
<br>
1) make ARCH=ppc ml405_defconfig<br>
2) patched kernel src with EDK(10.1) , so as to change xparameter.h,
and later made some changed in arch/ppc/boot/simple/embed_config.c and
xparameters.h file.<br>
3) make ARCH=ppc menuconfig , and selected uartlite to be console and
ramdisk as file system.<br>
4) Created ramdisk (as per Building embedded linux, Karim Yaghmour,
however major and minor number for device nodes is similar to ramdisk
provided at git.xilinx.com)<br>
5) I have placed this ramdisk in arch/ppc/boot/images<br>
6) And then issued $make ARCH=ppc CROSS_COMPILE=powerpc-405-linux-gnu-
zImge.initrd<br>
<br>
<br>
--I have downloaded ELDK4.1 and installed it. And when I compile
simple helloworld.c using cross compiler, it says unresolved symbol
'printf' . Is there anything else to install with ELDK ?<br>
<br>

In addition to what John wrote, I would also investigate your ramdisk.
<br>
I would be sure to check that you have the permissions/owner set
correctly
<br>
on bin/busybox. Also, I would double check that, if you compiled
busybox
<br>
with shared libraries, the shared libraries are in the right place
<br>
on your ramdisk.<br>
