Hi Simon,
I am trying to get kexec working on an ARM1136 using the 2.0.1 version of the KEXEC.

The loading seems to work ok. On "kexec -e", I see:

Starting new kernel
Uncompressing Linux...................................................................................................

crc error

 -- System halted

Have you ever seen this kind of failure ? 


Best Regards.

Hi,

When cross-compiling for arm the following works for me:

autoheader
autoconf
./configure --host=arm-unknown-linux-gnu

In what way is what you are trying failing?
And are you trying to build natively or cross-compile?
