kernel terminal after it shows PID hash ...

I have nios2linux 1.4.1 run on my customed board.

The board has a 2MByte Nor Flash, a 8MByte SDRAM and they work rightly.

The layout of flash memory is:

0x200000 ~ 0x304FFF Kernel

0x305000 ~ 0x3FFFFF File System

when the system boots, it shows

"

uClinux/Nios II

Altera Nios II support © 2004 Microtronix Datacom Ltd.

Built 1 zonelists

Kernel command line: root =

PID hash table entries: 64 (order: 6, 1024 bytes)

"

Then, the system halts.

What's wrong?

What does the PID hash table entries mean?

    There is not thing to do with PID.

    It might be problem of irq vector.

    Did you set your irq vector to sdram?

    Please read the nios wiki. It would be easier if you follow the wiki.
