RE: [U-Boot-Users] tftp loadable applets?

I noticed that there is a tftpboot command. Is there a similar mechanism in place for uploading applets via tftp?

I had booted uClinux's compressed zImage utilizing 'tftpboot' command and a following 'go' command as my 'CONFIG_BOOTCOMMAND' successfully. Though I haven't tried to use 'tftpboot' to load applets, it seems possible in that zImage is also a binary file(not ELF). The 'CONFIG_BOOTCOMMAND' and some relevant configurations were configured as below in my include/configs/<board>.h:

#define CFG_LOAD_ADDR 0x0c480000 #define CONFIG_BOOTFILE "zImage" #define CONFIG_BOOTCOMMAND "tftpboot; go 0c480000"

Note: 0x0c480000 is in the SDRAM address range.
