[U-Boot-Users] [PATCH] BUGFIX: serial setting for kgdb
by HoJin 06 Aug '05

06 Aug '05

Hi, KGDB_SMC_INDEX must be used as the index for brg_map, but it is used direclty. (compared with function serial_init) So it does not work properly. I have tested it and it works fine. I noticed the same problem with 'serial_scc.c', but I could not test it yet. Patch for only for 'serial_smc.c' is attached.

[U-Boot-Users] SCSI support for MIB405 board
by Wolfgang Denk 04 Aug '05

04 Aug '05

Dear Denis, can you tell me something about the SCSI support in the current versions of U-Boot? It seems the MIB405 board (maintained by you) has SCSI support enabled, but the whole code in common/cmd_scsi.c seemd to be unused - for example, there is no caller of do_scsi() or do_scsiboot() anywhere in the whole source tree? Best regards, Wolfgang Denk -- Software Engineering: Embedded and Realtime Systems, Embedded Linux Phone: (+49)-8142-66989-10 Fax: (+49)-8142-66989-80 Email: wd(a)denx.de In general, they do what you want, unless you want consistency. - Larry Wall in the perl man page

[U-Boot-Users] u-boot 1.1.1 and USB mass storage devices
by Shannon Holland 03 Aug '05

03 Aug '05

Hello, We are using u-boot on a Samsung S3C2410 based board and have USB mostly working using the arm920t USB driver. I say mostly working as some mass storage devices work fine, but most do not. Typically the behavior we see when they don't work is a "usb reset" reports the correct number of devices, a "usb tree" will return the correct device tree but "usb scan" will typically return a lot of CLI:TIMEOUT errors and seemingly never return. Sometimes it is able to find the storage device, but reading from it (it has a FAT16 filesystem) will return similar errors. I'm curious if these are known problems or likely to be something in the way we have (or have not) set up usb? Might anyone have some recommendations as to where to start looking? Thanks for any help! Shannon

[U-Boot-Users] Loading FPGA from an mkimage created image?
by Steven Scholz 10 Jun '05

10 Jun '05

Hi there, I know that fpga load [device number] [image address] [image size] can be used to init an FPGA. Now I want to compress and wrap the FPGA data with mkimage. Is there a way to pass the address of an Image to "fpga load". Or do I have to umcompress it first using "bootm" or something and then pass the address and size to "fpga load"? Thanks! -- Steven Scholz

Re: [U-Boot-Users] Support for Samsung 1Giga bit NAND device
by Laurent Mohin 01 Jun '05

01 Jun '05

Andy, U-boot 1.1.0 doesn't provide support for NAND flash with a page size of 2K-byte instead of 512 byte (and you're right, theses devices require special handling). Pantelis Antoniou submitted a patch on 2004-04-30 which seems to manage these new chips, but I don't think it has been added to the latest CVS tree. By the way, Samsung also offer 1 Giga bit devices with a 512 byte page size (K9K1G08UOM - Manufacturer ID : 0xEC, Chip ID: 0x79). Hope this helps, Laurent Andy Hawkins <a.hawkins(a)cabletime.com> Sent by: u-boot-users-admin(a)lists.sourceforge.net 14/06/04 13:40 To: u-boot-users(a)lists.sourceforge.net cc: Subject: [U-Boot-Users] Support for Samsung 1Giga bit NAND device Hi, Can anyone tell me if U-Boot has support for the Samsung 1 Giga Bit NAND devices (Manufacturer ID: 0xec, Chip ID: 0xf1)? I understand these devices have an unusually large block size, that needs special handling. Is this correct? Thanks.
