Hello.
After extensive testing and google/(xilinx forum)/(microzed) searching, I decided to post this question here.
I'm trying to cross-compile the linux kernel (Open Source Linux from Xilinx) in an OpenSUSE computer and boot it in a MicroZed board. I downloaded the Vivado Web Pack and the linux kernel (what I think is "Open Source Linux") from the xilinx's linux-xlnx git repository. I build the kernel, and it generates the image. For this, I had to generate build the mkimage utility found in the "u-boot-xlnx" file that also comes in the repository, as outlined in the Xilinx's guide.
For the cross-compilation process, I use the cross-compilation toolchain that are available after installing Vivado and sourcing the settings64.sh file. I copy the uImage to an SD card. In this card, there are also the other booting files and images from the MicroZed SD image. That is, I use the same boot.bin, the ramdisk, etc., and I only replace the uImage that I just cross-compiled.
The kernel is able to boot, but it hangs, in the line that says:
"Starting Kernel ...."
The checksums and everything prior to that is ok.
It simply hangs there, and no further action is performed. One reason may be that it is not decompressing the uImage properly because I might be using the wrong mkimage utility.
Any thoughts on what could it be and how to procceed?
Good day.
