Where does this trace come from ? from a bootloader ?
I don't understand its format, can you explain ? All I can say that
it seems that you're using CKSEG0 for kernel addresses.

You also said that you don't have any initrd. And most of the changes
you reverted back is related to initrd except this part:

-       reserved_end = init_initrd();
-       reserved_end = PFN_UP(CPHYSADDR(max(reserved_end, (unsigned 
long)&_end)));
+       reserved_end = max(init_initrd(), PFN_UP(__pa_symbol(&_end)));

Can you try a plain 2.6.20 with this only change ? If it helps, can
you give the value of 'reserved_end' in both cases ?

Do you use default cobalt config file ?

BTW does Cobalt platform have early printk available ? if so can you use
it ?
