[Ltib] Linux bootingg halts

[Salvador Gianluca]

Hi Stuart and to all the list! (but is there somebody else?)

I know, this isn't a really LTIB problem. But i have already posted it to freescale and other forums, and anyone has helped me yet. (Sigh!)

So now i will try with you also... because you reply to me fast and every time... and beacuse i think that you could know why i have this problem.

So, do you remember that my LTIB didn't work few days ago?

Now it works and i succesfully completed all the procedure for my Coldfire MCF547x/MCF548x lite evaluation board with MCF5484CZP200 processor

I have succesfully downloaded and executed colilo. I have also downloaded my linux kernel image called "vmlinux.bin".

Following the freescale's linux target image user's guide (specific for MCF54x5 and MCF54x4) after the download it says to type "config save" and "g 2000" commands...
the commands output is shown below:
