I need a boot loader for an ARM7tdmi (NetSilicon 7520 based UNC20 board
from
Forth Systems) has anyone seen such an animal? U-Boot seems to only work
for
the ARM720, is this true?
In my limited experience, U-Boot will run on an ARM7TDMI processor, but I've not even thought about trying Thumb mode.
I have a set of patches in process that provide NS7520 processor support for U-Boot, based upon similar patches I produced for uClinux. U-Boot already has support for other Net+ARM processors, so the changes are not too invasive. The patches still need to be checked for compliance to the U-Boot coding standards and any missing brain errors on my part, but I'll try to get them out today.
