[U-Boot-Users] IMPORTANT NOTE to all maintainers with NAND flash
by Wolfgang Denk 24 Mar '06

24 Mar '06

Hello, this is a "heads up" note to all maintainers of boards with NAND flash: I am going to drop support for the old NAND flash code and replace it by Ladislav Michl's rewrite, which is available in the "testing-NAND" branch of our git repository. This new code has been available for testing for 6 months, and I have not received any negative feedback (I did not receive any positive feedback, either - but if you did not care until now you should not complain later). Dropping the support for the old code means that the build for all boards that use NAND currently will *break*. I am aware that this is not a nice thing to do, but I see no other way to get the attention of the board maintainers and force them to update their code to the new way for their boards. This should be not be very hard, though. Since the new implementation is borrowed from Linux, it is quite likely that the said boards could use the new NAND support already present for them in the Linux source. We will now merge the "testing-NAND" branch back into the main tree; once this is done, I will allow for a transition period of 4 weeks. After this, the old code will be removed, even if it breaks support for some boards.

[U-Boot-Users] bad CRC, using default environment
by Burren Niklaus 23 Mar '06

23 Mar '06

Hello I have just installed u-boot 1.1.1 on a Phoenix-SBC single board computer from Axotec. When u-boot starts up the following warning appears: *** Warning - bad CRC, using default environment I can set new environment variables with "setenv". When I want to save the new variables with the command "saveenv" the following messages appears in the shell: Saving Environment to Flash... Un-Protected 1 sectors Erasing Flash...Erasing sector 1 ... ok. Erased 1 sectors Writing to Flash... Flash not Erased <-- Is there something wrong? Protected 1 sectors When I restart the system there is still the bad CRC warning and all changes in the environment variables are lost. Has anybody an idea why I can not save the environment variables? Regards Niklaus Burren

[U-Boot-Users] how can i set SDRAM
by Hurricane555 23 Mar '06

23 Mar '06

Board: NS9750 I´d like to set a new Value in my 0xA0700100, but I don´t know how!? In this register you can set our hardware configuration for your RAM. I wrote this values into /board/NS9750/lowlevel_init.S without effect. The values in the registers are still the same. Where I have to modify this? -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/how-can-i-set-SDRAM-t1330438.html#a3552427 Sent from the Uboot - Users forum at Nabble.com.

[U-Boot-Users] [PATCH] fix building of tools/env programs
by Murray.Jensen＠csiro.au 23 Mar '06

This patch shows what I had to do to get the programs in the tools/env directory to build (i.e. fw_printenv/fw_setenv). Your mileage may vary. Cheers! Murray...
