Hi,
I have built (cross-compiled for ppc 82xx) Linux 2.6.8-rc4 kernel and am
trying to boot it on PQ2FADS-VR

Is it software or hardware (bad memory ?) issue ?
Thanks,
Best Regards,

This seems to be more userspace related than kernel related, so this is
probably the wrong mailing list. Anyway, check that:
- busybox is statically linked or that you have the necessary
libraries in the library path. (you can check this with "ldd busybox")
- busybox is marked executable
- busybox is compiled for the right processor
- check that the init= parameter points to the right executable
- if you have another ppc machine, try a "chroot <dir> busybox" and
see if it executes or why it doesn't
I hope this helps,
