Hi,
I have no idea if this breaks other boards but at least it's start for further work. I tried it on the imx31 litekit (which boots from NOR) but that board doesn't seem to boot even before applying Fabios patch, I'll see if I can figure out why that board is broken now. Don't know when though.
I will let others comment about the changes you did in arch/arm/cpu/arm1136/start.S Will also try it later today.
Anyway, arch/arm/cpu/arm1136/start.S cannot be compiled without the changes suggested by Magnus due to the following lines:
_nand_boot_ofs : .word nand_boot - _start
":" seems to me wrong in any case and should be fixed. Is this syntax accepted by newer compiler releases ?
IMHO board_init_f must be called absolutely before nand_boot. I have tested the changes suggested by Magnus on a i.MX35 and the board boots from NAND. However, I do not see the problems with the console, and I can think they are not related to this issue.
