Hello,
I am using the guides at xilinx wiki to build the linux kernel for microblaze on a nexys2 board. I know this isn't supported/tested but I figured I'd give it a try.
I've made some progress, however the kernel hangs during boot. This is my output.

I'm not sure on how to debug this to investigate further. Any pointers or suggestions are appreciated!
Thanks!

If I stop the processor during this "hang", it is stuck in some code not related to the kernel (?), that would be adresses of 0xc0000000. Is this some sort of exception ? I baffled...

Finally, I got some output from where it hangs, and it seems to be related to softirq. I have an interrupt controller in the design, obviously, but there isn't much options to set.
Again, I'm thankful for any help regarding this.
