Dear Benjamin,

We're porting U-Boot to a new board. We've followed the plan given in the README and have written board.c, flash.c, configs/board.h. We've flashed it and ... well, nothing happens. Nothing at all.
This is normal.
What I need to know is, how do I find out what U-Boot is up to? Is there a way to debug it from the beginning? I've got it connected serially (unfortunately, our debugger works under windows, so we've got to use HyperTerminal) but nothing shows up at all.
Attach a BDI2000, and connect to it using GDB. See section "Debugging of U-Boot" in the manual.
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk
