Hi
As you mentioned I checked my System.map file and found
c0199614 b log_buf

But it does not say much here. Any help on this???????????
I also enabled CONFIG_SERIAL_TEXT_DEBUG, but I did not see any text
after uncompressing the linux.
As mentioned in your 3rd point "some flag in the U-Boot code for RAM
in burst mode.". What is that flag actually? Coulnd you let me know?
Thanks
Kishore
