Re: [U-Boot-Users] Kernel XIP

In message DCAFE6B52143A24082BB128C3AEF61E07C70EF@BLR-EC-MBX03.wipro.com you wrote:

I configured for kernel XIP and created xipImage. When I tried to load it through u-boot, it complained about invalid magic number. Later I added a 64 byte header required for u-boot with the following mkimage command:

mkimage -A arm -O linux -T kernel -C none -a 0x00080000 -e 0x00080040 -d xipImage XIPImage.

U-Boot does not provide direct support for XIP on ARM; the existing code has only been tested on PowerPC.

Any idea what is going wrong here ?

Search the ARM linux mailing list and you will find an extensive discussion about all these issues.
