    Hi,

    I was successfully able to run the linux from logicloader. I want to now use this linux with redboot. I have redboot running on my iMX31 board. When I try to run linux

      fis load zImage -b 0x80000
      exec -b 0x80000 -l 0x1a0000 -c "console=ttymxc0 root=/dev/mtdblock3 rootfstype=jffs2"


    it says the following and hangs
      entry=0x80008000, target=0x80008000
      Using base address 0x01000000 and length 0x00199b04
      Uncompressing Linux.............................................................
      ................................................. done, booting the kernel.


    My redboot has mapped the SDRAM from 0x80000000 -> 0x0 so 0x80008000 or 0x81000000 is not available. Is there some configuration I need to do this linux before I can run from redboot? For e.g. is the entry address or load address need to be changed. Please help.

    Thanks,
    Harish
