Hi, there
Currently linux kernel can be loaded by u-boot without any problem on our custom hardware. But when an additional environment optargs is added by “setenv optargs mem=192M", the kernel hangs on. Some of environments showes below. BTW, the DRAM is a total of 256MB.

I really can not understand why. Any idea about this?
