So what? If you think that parts of this documentation are wrong or obsolete please point them out in detail.
I was talking about Readme file : "doc/README.RPXlite" file. I thought that the section 1 might be obsolete. With the documentation of my RPXlite, I have'nt found any VisionClick flash programmer.
That doesn't mean that the documentationis obsolete. You can buy a Visio* Debugger if you like (*), but this is a complete separate product and has nothing to to with the RPXlite.
(*) IMHO your money is better spent if you buy a BDI2000 instead.
everything into the flash memory, I wanted to test it by loading it into the ram and execute the binary file. ( the same way I do when I want to run
This cannot be done easily (*), and if you read the mailing list archive you will find why.
(*) "Not easily" means that you cannot do it if you have to ask why it's not working or what needs to be done to get it working. And if you know these things, you will not do it because then you'll also understand that it doesn't allow you to perform the test you are looking for.
better, but it did'nt. I guess that's why I'm looking for someone who could give me a few hints about how to run u-boot.
This is writtenin the docs: burn it into flash, and reset the board.
As I understand it (and maybe this is where my problem is) I am supposed to be able tu run u-boot's binary (or s-record image) directly from the ram. Now,
No, you are NOT supposed to. There is not a single place in the docs which even faintly suggests this.
I know these questions might sound "newbee" to you guys, but I really need to
Just stick with the written documentation, and follow it verbatim; don't speculate.
know if this code is suppose to work alone, without any kernel, or it absolutly need to work under linux (a bit like when you run lilo from a "normal-i386" linux box)
You are confused. Running the "lilo" comand under Linux has nothing to do with running the "lilo" boot loader. These are totally different programs.
