Zedboard booting up issue

Former Member

Hi,

Working with xillinux linux distribution to boot the zedboard I have a problem.

1.The board boots fine works well but hangs up frequently.

2. On re-boot the boot loader displays a message that there is an error while decompressing the kernel image and stops booting.

3. Each and every time even after properly shutting down the board this error happens and the board boots up fine if the boot partition is formatted and freshly created again.

Can any one please suggest why this is happening with the board
working with Z7000 APSoC

    Hi,

    After some deliberation I can say that the Xillinux boots up without any problem and shuts down without errors.

    If I start the x-windows using startx the board hangs up randomly and will not shut down properly and displays a message which states "Failure to communicate with kernel-device-mapper" and the board will not reboot and displays the decompression error as stated originally on doing a manual re-boot. 

    Does this mean that there is a problem due to bandwidth mismatch and SDHC card is unable to feed data to VGA display or it could be a problem with the xserver installed.
