Hi,

I met the problem like you in DE0 board which has 8MB SDRAM too. To my opinion, maybe it is not correct, zImage file is a zip file. It must be unzip or uncompressed before being mapped to memory. So in fact the true kernel ran on the memory is lardger than 8MB. One way to test this is that running the same system on the other board which has 16MB or lardger SDRAM, and then use 


ps -v

to see space used of the memory.

If my thought is wrong, please fogive me.
