Linux can not get start on the zed board

Hello every one ,

      The linux system cannot get start on my board.

      There are logs printed through the serial port

## Starting application at 0x00008000 ...
Uncompressing Linux... done, booting the kernel.
           the system stopped here , booting the kernel failed.

           What's the reason causing this kind of problem..

          Hoping your help!

I have done some trial. And I make sure that the kernel is ok. Because it works well with the official BOOT.BIN file.

But when using my BOOT.BIN file , it never works .
and the system stop at here:
## Starting application at 0x00008000 ...
Uncompressing Linux... done, booting the kernel.

The difference in the serial log file between the two situation is that
MY:
SD version 2.0
High Capacity: Yes
Capacity: 3.7 GiB
Bus Width: 4-bit
HIS:

SD version 1.0
High Capacity: Yes
Capacity: 3.7 GiB
Bus Width: 1-bit

I am not sure if it is the problem.

Anybody may give me some advice??

I suppose the BOOT.BIN file is the source of the error.

The BOOT.BIN is made up of the fsbl.elf, u-boot.elf and system.bit file. I have downloaded the system.bit file to the zynq , It successed.

So only the fsbl.elf and the u-boot.elf could be wrong.

Hey,
i had the same problem. in my case the fsbl was wrong, but i have no idea why. the fsble was created with the template in sdk 14.5. Does anyone know what the problem with the fsbl is? I never succeeded building a working FSBL with that template.

Hey sxl630828191,
Have you followed speedway labs (lab1_1 ,lab1_2 and lab 1_3) for implementing linux on zynq? If you haven't go through them.They have explained how to create boot.bin using zynq_fsbl_0.elf,system.bit and u-boot.elf.It must work

I have solved the problem! The hardware you configure in xps must accordance with devicetree.dtb. So you can modify your configuration in xps or modify devicetree.dts!
hope this can help someone have the same problem!
