Hello, I've got the MPC8568MDS board. When I try to compile the latest version of U-boot for this board and burn it onto its flash, the boot process gets stuck right after the RAM initialization sequence (it prints the DDR+SDRAM size, but doesn't continue). As far as I was able to see with my ICE, the DDR wasn't properly initialized after the DDR setup sequence (wasn't able to track the exact reason). The thing is that the original Flash image I've got from Freescale does boot properly on the same board. Its startup prints indicate that it's based on version 1.2.0 as well, but there's no way to know which version of the current tree was taken for this purpose (the date only specifies the compilation date - not the tree version date). I don't think it has to do with my compilation environment - I use ELDK 4.0 (used it also with the MPC 8560 & 8360 processors with success). Would appreciate any help, especially information about the last version that was stable with this board. This brings me to suggest the following improvement: With every check in to the U-boot tree (any of them), there should also be a main auto generated file, that includes the date, tree name and perhaps an auto incremented build version. This information should be printed at startup along with major version and compilation date. This should give proper details for the referenced U-boot version. Best regards, David.
