The only way I can get raw eMMC boot mode to work is if I put the MLO on /dev/mmcblk1 (which is the user data area).
Did you change the SYSBOOT pins to use automotive peripheral mode, rather than user data? If you did, you should see an error from MLO saying that you came in from an unsupported boot device (since we don't have the value of what ROM tells us for when we come in that way defined in arch/arm/include/asm/arch-omap5/spl.h). Or there is some other problem.
I did try both SYSBOOT for automotive peripheral mode.. I wished it did say something (even if it is an error message). My problem is that it does not display anything at all. So, I think I fall under the "some other problem" category. :)
Also note that U-Boot defaults to using these "boot" partitions for storing the environment so you will need to change that part of the config once you use these partitions for something else.
Thank you for the heads up. I'll watch out for this when I get to this phase.
Tom, since you're both the u-boot-arm maintainer and happens to work for TI, do you know the e.t.a of mainlining the /drivers/mmc/spl_mmc.c and the related code needed to boot from eMMC in raw mode into denx-master?
I rather stick with denx-master mainline if at all possible, but right now the functionality only exist in p-ti-u-boot-2013.04, right?
Thanks a lot for the pointers.
