Hello Stefano and thank you for the quick reply. To be honest, i'm not even sure what is the relocation you are talking about... What comes as a natural reply in my mind is: this is an old board , too.
Very old.
once the code was ported it must have been working, no?
With a specific U-boot version, yes. You can try with an older U-Boot version, checking out from GIT former releases, where the board was supported.
tthat is what i did.. the link I sent was from a Jul 2006 commit. in fact it is the commit that added support for the specific board...
with or without CFI / ARM relocation. so it feels odd that I doesn't start.
With current code, it cannot start.
Besides, i'm not into any major project, so i'm not entirely sure i need to have a latest version of u-boot.
Try with a version <= 2009.08.
apart from the specific commit I have tried taged version 1.1.6 that one wouldn't even compile so I take it there was no maintainer at the time
i'm fine by re-porting it. only i know fairly little about booting systems. is there a guide for porting u-boot? or any sort of help I can use from somewhere? somewhere to start from that is.
Starting point can be at http://www.denx.de/wiki/DULG/Manual
thank you for the link
