I have used the latest ColdFire Emulator (version 0.3.1):
http://www.slicer.ca/coldfire/

I have installed the latest available distribution (20060803, contains
linux-2.6.17) an M68K/ColdFire tools (m68k-uclinux-20060615) and followed
the instructions on:
http://www.uclinux.org/ports/coldfire/source.html

Running a linux-2.4.x kernel isn't a problem. The things I have done for
this:
make config
selected Arnewsh 5206 and the linux-2.4.x and used defaults for the rest
make dep
make

When I do the the same for a linux-2.6.x kernel I don't get any output on
the serial ports (telnet localhost 5206 and telnet localhost 5207).

Does anyone now how to get it work?
Does it work with another board which is supported by the ColdFire emulator?

I have checked the start address which is 0x10000 with m68k-elf-objdump"

Thanks,

Harro

It is possible that the kernel you're running is not configured
properly. However, without having access to your .config, it's pretty
hard to verify that.

Could you please put it online somewhere? Please do _not_ attach it to
a reply message.

Hopefully you can help me out!

I have placed the .config files on:
http://members.home.nl/hr.haan/config_linux-2.4.x
http://members.home.nl/hr.haan/config_linux-2.6.x
http://members.home.nl/hr.haan/config_root_linux-2.4.x
http://members.home.nl/hr.haan/config_root_linux-2.6.x

Thanks in advance,

Harro
