Hello Stelian,
Hi Rémy,
Thank you for adding support for the Atmel AT91SAM9261-EK to U-boot.
But I have a question here: Does USB-storage devices work in U-boot at your place? (e.g. 1GB USB memory stick) I use U-boot 1.3.4-rc1
[...]
You're correct, USB support on the AT91SAM9 boards has some unknown issues. I can reproduce the behaviour you're seing easily here.
Nicolas Ferre (added in CC:) confirmed the problem too (with both the current U-Boot version and the atmel specific 1.1.5-atmel_1.5 version). But he is very certain that it did work at some time in the past, with some USB storage devices.
So it may be a matter of hardware (lo or hi-speed USB storage devices ?), or a matter of timing somewhere in the driver, I do not know. The Linux USB stack works perfectly, so this is not a hardware problem on the AT91SAM9 chip or board.
Somebody needs to debug this, but I didn't found the time to investigate yet. If you badly need it to work, well, you're welcome to try debugging it :)
Thanks,
