Customized 2.6.10 kernel on a Compact Flash

[govind raj]

Hi all,

We are trying to build a customized kernel image from the stable 2.6.10 
kernel release (in kernel.org). We have not applied any kernel patches on 
this released version. We are trying to boot this custom image onto a 
compact flash (from Toshiba) in a embedded board (AMD processor with 64 MB 
RAM). While the kernel is coming up during the boot process, it panics and 
the console output is as follows:

-----------------------------------------

Memory: 60648k/65536k available (2443k kernel code, 4412k reserved, 691k 
data, 128k init, 0k highmem)

checking if image is initramfs... it is

Are there any known issues in building this kernel version on a Compact 
Flash? Request your inputs/suggestions to overcome this problem that we are 
facing.

Thanks in advance for your time and inputs,

Govind
