Hi,

I am trying to use the --initrd or --ramdisk options but end-up with
the "Base address: 809de380 is not page aligned" error. I am executing
the following command.

root at arm-cortex-a15:~# kexec -l zImage --initrd=ramdisk.cpio.gz
--command-line="root=/dev/ram rw ip=dhcp console=ttyAMA0,38400n8
init=/bin/bash"
Base address: 809de380 is not page aligned
root at arm-cortex-a15:~#
root at arm-cortex-a15:~# kexec -l zImage --ramdisk=ramdisk.cpio.gz
--command-line="root=/dev/ram rw ip=dhcp console=ttyAMA0,38400n8
init=/bin/bash"
Base address: 809de380 is not page aligned
root at arm-cortex-a15:~#

I have also tried with the ramdisk.img, endup with same error as
above.  I am using latest kexec-tools and kernel.org kernel on
Versatile express Cortex-A15 V2P target.   I will appreciate your
inputs/thoughts w.r.t. kexec-tools.

--Thanks and Regards
Naresh Bhat
