Well -- one of the first things to do is to figure out if you are
executing the kernel code after the handoff from uboot. I would put a
halt instruction in linux/arch/m68k/coldfire/head.S and then see if it
gets hit. And then step through head.S with the debugger.

I meant the processor clock rate -- if you change that you need to
change some params in the kernel config file.
