Hello everyone,
I want to run linux kernel on ZedBoard on a portion of the entire memory, with the rest of the memory dedicated to a frame buffer. So i pass the parameter "mem=" at boot. Every number < 512M bring to kernel panic.
Here is the result:

Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill the idle task!

Is there any particular configuration for the kernel to make it works with restricted memory?
Thanx in advance
