I port u-boot to magicarm board based on lpc2290, this board has a nor flash whose address range form 0x80000000 to 0x801fffff ram address(0x81000000-0x817fffff). I modified the micro TEXT_BASE to 0x81080000 and dowmload the u-boot.bin into the flash. the u-boot doesn't work at all . when i modified the micao TEXT_BASE to 0x80000000 and download to flash ,it only work for a while and soon collapsed . who can tell me what the problem is. this is the ld sccript OUTPUT_FORMAT("elf32-littlearm", "elf32-littlearm", "elf32-littlearm") OUTPUT_ARCH(arm) ENTRY(_start) SECTIONS { . = 0x80000000; . = ALIGN(4); .text : { cpu/lpc2200/start.o (.text) *(.text) } . = ALIGN(4); .rodata : { *(.rodata) } . = ALIGN(4); .data : { *(.data) } . = ALIGN(4); .got : { *(.got) } . = .; __u_boot_cmd_start = .; .u_boot_cmd : { *(.u_boot_cmd) } __u_boot_cmd_end = .; armboot_end_data = .; . = ALIGN(4); __bss_start = .; .bss : { *(.bss) } _end = .; } shizhi21cn 2006-06-18

[U-Boot-Users] mkimage question
by Travis B. Sawyer 16 Jun '06

16 Jun '06

List: I'm sending this to the u-boot list as I figure this is where I'll get the expert advise on mkimage, if the wrong list, I'll cross post to linux embedded ppc. I have a bit of a dilemma. I'm using mtd in linux for several images: Linux Kernel Ramdisk FPGA code Das U-Boot (and env vars) When storing the kernel, I'd like to be able to use md5sum, but since the kernel does not take up the entire mtd partition, md5sum fails when I do: md5sum /dev/mtd1 md5sum uImage Usually I md5sum uImage > uImage.md5sum and change the file name to /dev/mtd1 so I can do: md5sum -c uImage.md5sum So, I though maybe mkimage -l /dev/mtd1 would work. No dice: mkimage -l /dev/mtd1 /tftpboot/mkimage: Bad size: "/dev/mtd1" is no valid image so, dd if=/dev/mtd1 of=test.bin mkimage -l test.bin *** Warning: "test.bin" has corrupted data! Image Name: Linux-2.6.16.16-Sandburst Created: Wed Jun 7 14:00:21 2006 Image Type: PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (gzip compressed) Data Size: 1280248 Bytes = 1250.24 kB = 1.22 MB Load Address: 0x00000000 Entry Point: 0x00000000 See ***Warning above. Anyone have a better approach? TIA, travis

Hi Matthias Thank you for your quick response! I've tried out your suggestion. Unfortunately U-Boot stops while booting, without reaching the command prompt. The output is: ... U-Boot 1.1.4 (Jun 16 2006 - 16:45:43) CPU: AMCC PowerPC 405EP Rev. B at 266.666 MHz (PLB=133, OPB=66, EBC=33 MHz) I2C boot EEPROM disabled 16 kB I-Cache 16 kB D-Cache DRAM: 8 MB FLASH: 16 MB In: serial Out: serial Err: serial Net: ... Enabled debug outputs (with defined DEBUG and ET_DEBUG constants) do not tell me anything more. What else could I try? Best regards, Reto -----Original Message----- Hi Reto, can you try it with ... #define CONFIG_NET_MULTI 1 #undef CONFIG_HAS_ETH1 ... in your configuration file. Perhaps that helps.

[U-Boot-Users] PPC405EP ethernet problems
by Stalder, Reto 16 Jun '06

Hi I'm having problems setting up the ethernet on a custom board with an AMCC PPC405EP. Whenever I run a command which uses the ethernet, I get a similar behaviour: First U-Boot displays 66 times the following message: miiphy_register: non unique device name 'ppc_4xx_eth0' ENET Speed is 100 Mbps - FULL duplex connection Then it starts printing the following in an endless loop: ppc_4xx_eth_initialize: Cannot allocate private hw data for eth_device 0 The ethernet part in the configuration file reads as follows: #define CONFIG_MII // Enable MII PHY management #define CONFIG_PHY_ADDR 0x0C // Front eth phy (addr via pin strapping) #define CONFIG_IPADDR 192.168.248.103 // Default IP address (test only) #define CONFIG_SERVERIP 192.168.248.111 // tftpboot from stein #define CONFIG_ETHADDR 00:40:63:DC:B6:93 // MAC address Has anyone an idea where the error could lie? Could anybody give me a hint, where to continue debugging? Thank you very much in advance, Reto Stalder

[U-Boot-Users] MPC8540 eval board ethernet issues
by Michael Brian Willis 16 Jun '06

16 Jun '06

Hello all, I am having trouble getting my ethernet interfaces to work in U-Boot 1.1.4. I am using an STK8540 starterkit evaluation board from TQ Components. This board uses the TQM8540 board with an MPC8540 Freescale processor. I cannot perform any network operations such as ping, tftp, or nfs. When I try to ping an ip address I receive the following: "Waiting for PHY auto negotiation to complete...... TIMEOUT !" I have tried using the u-boot image that shipped with the board as well as building my own u-boot image and the results are the same. I am pretty confident that the MAC addresses are accurate b/c the addresses programmed on the board are the same as the sticker that is physically on the board. I have included U-Boot output of the startup sequence, the ping command, the printenv command, and the mii info command below. I have spent quite a bit of time searching for a solution, however I have been unsuccessful. So if anybody has a possible solution or can point me in the right direction, I would greatly appreciate it.

I forgot add atachement with start.S. Sorry I need do some changes in suzaku config file for correct setting address for stack pointer. Please add one line to include/configs/suzaku.h.
