Hello!

> I personally have used Philip's meta-zynq layer to build a working u-boot and

I have also tried to build a kernel and root filesystem for Zynq but the kernel
gets stuck when booting, regardless if on the ZC702 board or on Qemu. I tried
Poky denzil and Poky danny.

Also the alternate meta-zynq layer from git.yoctoproject.org shows the same
behaviour.

These are the last console messages which I get:
## Booting kernel from Legacy Image at 01000000 ...
   Image Name:   Linux-3.2.11-yocto-standard
   Created:      2012-12-04  20:07:37 UTC

   Data Size:    2997472 Bytes = 2.9 MiB
   Load Address: 00008000
   Entry Point:  00008000

   Loading Kernel Image ... OK
OK
   Loading Device Tree to 0efed000, end 0eff7185 ... OK

Starting kernel ...


Instead of using Linux kernel version 3.5-xilinx I always get
Linux-3.2.11-yocto-standard which is obviously missing the
Zynq patches.

meta-zynq/recipes-kernel-linux-zynq contains the following lines:
LINUX_VERSION ?= "3.5"
LINUX_VERSION_EXTENSION ?= "-xilinx"

How can I force Yocto to build kernel 3.5-xilinx?

With best regards,
