XUPV2P update to kernel 2.6 failsHi all,
I was wondering if anyone got the XUPV2P board successfully up and running with a recent 2.6 kernel? I didn't succeed. I tried the newest kernel from xilinx git (2.6.27) and also an older one, 2.6.22 (also from xilinx git). For the newer I used the "device-tree" as bsp. For the 2.6.22 I just copied over the xparameters_ml300.h file. In both cases no output at all was observable at the uart. Not even a single sign from the uart at any time... Strange is, the same download.bit file is working with a 2.4 kernel. Could it be a kernel .config issue? But can this really be a software/kernel issue? For the 2.4 kernel there was an output from the "bootloader" (some addresses and the "Loading..." information) even for wrong configured kernels... On this list I was reading something about setting the uart clockfreq correctly in the .dts (it was not set at all, I have to stick with EDK 9.1). But this didn't help for me. To boot the FPGA I have to use an ace file on a cf-disc. For this I use the download.bit file together with the simpleImage.virtex405-XUPV2P.elf (on 2.6.27) or zImage (on 2.6.22)... Any suggestions on this? Thanks a lot!

RE: XUPV2P update to kernel 2.6 failsYou should visit http://xilinx.wikidot.com as there's more information there.
In general, this board is not directly supported, but is very similar to ML405, a board with a Virtex 4 and a 405 processor.

RE: XUPV2P update to kernel 2.6 failsHi,
I got Linux up and running as well on the XUPV2P using Linux kernel version 2.6.24 a while back, downloaded from the Xilinx git tree.

Re: XUPV2P update to kernel 2.6 failsHi,
Thanks a lot for the answers! Now I don't feel so alone anymore... I finally got it to work. The problem was simple: I'm using an uart pcore from openpcores. And this hardware requires some changes to the ns16550 kernel driver... With those changes, everything goes well! I'm happy about that.. ;-) But... since everything seems to work now with EDK 9.1 I try to use my XUP-board with the EDK 10.1 In EDK 10.1 there is no board definition file for my XUPV2P. Right now I use the board file from: https://wiki.ittc.ku.edu/ittc/Eecs388#Tool_Repository Now I got even stranger bahaviour than before. When ever I try to boot into a linux kernel, some arbitrary boot parameters seem to appear. Like: Loading from 0x00004000 [...] And after those messages the system hangs. (the real messages vary from time to time) I have to say that for the MemoryTestApp there seems to be no problem. It runs like a charm.. So now I'm wondering if anyone has a board definition file usable for the linux kernel on the XUPV2P?? Thanks a lot for any hint!

Re: XUPV2P update to kernel 2.6 failsYou have better to use EDK 9.1.
I tried to use EDK 10.1 for the xupv2p and I used the board defintion file from https://wiki.ittc.ku.edu/ittc/Eecs388#Tool_Repository . Linux 2.6 booted correctly, but I failed to get the Ethernet working. So I used EDK 9.1 to generate the device tree. Now I have linux 2.6 on my xupv2p, with root file system on a remote host (nfs boot). I still have a problem, I didn't succeed to access the flash disk (pbs with sysace driver). If you want more precise informations, I can help you. Good luck :)

RE: XUPV2P update to kernel 2.6 failsHi Joachim,
Did you have the sysace working fine? thanks
