I am currently using u-boot version 1.1.6 on a powerpc embedded device whic h have increased from 64Mbyte RAM memory to 128Mbye size length. The problem is that my device does not recognize the 128Mbyte keeping the o riginal 64Mbyte length. Does anyone know how to let u-boot and the linux bsp to recognize the new m emory length?
It seems your port does not initialize the RAM correctly. The recommended approach is to use get_ram_size() to automatically adjust to the actual RAM memory size on the system.
Note that U-Boot 1.1.6 is more than 4.5 years old. An update to the recent version is *strongly* recommended.
Best regards,
