As you said re-assigning TEXT_BASE won't work. But why?
Because you asigned an address in flash memory (= read-only) where a RAM address (= writable) was expoected.
Truly speaking I don't know exactly how the U-boot booting process happens, I mean i don't know how it is
Then don;t meddle with things you don't understand.
loaded in differrent stages and where.... Can you plz suggest some tutorial for the same....I couldn't find one.
I suggest you start with the RAEDME. It explains the boot procedure.
I had changed TEXT_BASE since I assumed that after power-on the system reads from location 0x00000000. So I had changed the TEXT_BASE address so that the system would read from location 0x00000000 where I have placed my u-boot.
This is not how U-Boot works.
You had also mentioned that u r using a different tool chain. Which one is that?
We use the ELDK (of course). See http://www.denx.de/ELDL.html
It would be really helpful for me if you list out the steps for building u-boot and the memory switch
All this is doumented in great detail in the README and the manual (DULG - see http://www.denx.de/twiki/bin/view/DULG/Manual)
settings. Also it would be great if you can specify how to convert a .srec or .bin file to .m0 file.
Maybe you explain what a ".m0" file is?
Also, what's the difference between booting through rrload and booting through U-boot.
Maybe you explain what "rrload" is?
