I am attempting to boot a NetBSD kernel from U-Boot. It's working fine when the kernel is downloaded from a TFTP server and the root file system is loading via NFS.
However, now I want to place the kernel in flash and have it relocate and run from RAM when the board starts up with the NFS file system. Eventually, I want to stick the file system in a RAM disk and have the whole thing stored in RAM.
I assume that the process is basically the same as booting Linux so I have been using Section 7 of the U-Boot manual at http://www.denx.de/wiki/view/DULG/BootingEmbeddedLinux as a reference. However, several of the examples of U-Boot command line inputs are missing from the sections on Booting from Flash Memory and Running Standalone with a RAM Disk.
Will these examples be added soon? If not, is there another mailing list that deals with these issues?
Best regards,
