Re: [U-Boot] [Buildroot] Craneboard with Uboot and xloader
by Mohamed HAMZAOUI 06 Mar '12

06 Mar '12

The first problem is the lack of informations about Craneboard in the craneboard TI wiki for example the display over DVI informations... the other problem is that impossible to use BUILDROOT to create a distribution for Craneboard with any vanilla kernel version (2.6.37; 2.6.39.1,..). the only version that works is that provided by TI and it's based on 2.6.32 vanilla kernel which is an older version for many tools. We need a little description how to adapt Buildroot for compiling any recent kernel version and other things for working on Craneboard ! we need a kernel config file who work with recent version of vanilla kernel and not generate a compile error or a kernel panic when booting ! I tested all the possibilities with Buildroot 2012.02 and nothing works.

This patchset adds support for ST's FSMC controller. In the current u-boot, a SPEAr specific driver exists for FSMC controller.

Dear Michael Schwingen, do you still intend to maintain IXP support in uboot or can all those IXP boards be removed? I'd be great if you helped bringing them back in-line! Thanks in advance! Marek Vasut

[U-Boot] i2c support for u-boot

[U-Boot] "CONFIG_MTD_ECC_SOFT not enabled" breakage/change
by David Purdy 05 Mar '12

05 Mar '12

While finishing some work on support for a new machine, a build based on the latest git, I see this: ........................... U-Boot 2011.12-00374-g54e9668-dirty (Mar 02 2012 - 14:48:48) Pogoplug E02 SoC: Kirkwood 88F6281_A0 DRAM: 256 MiB WARNING: Caches not enabled NAND: CONFIG_MTD_ECC_SOFT not enabled 0 MiB ````````````````````````````` which is very reminiscent of what Thomas Weber mentions here: http://lists.denx.de/pipermail/u-boot/2012-February/117926.html Is it now considered standard and expected practice to enable CONFIG_MTD_ECC_SOFT in the machine config ? Or is this a fluke/bug/commit error that is awaiting a fix? thanks, davy
