Anyway, i still don't know how to determine the Load- & Entry-Address, and i would be thankful if you could clear some things up for me.
Did you read the FAQ? See es[ecially [1]
[1] http://www.denx.de/wiki/view/DULG/MyStandaloneProgramDoesNotWork
The first time i came in touch with U-Boot i booted a Uimage kernel, and i had to do it the following way: (Please, notice the offset between Load- & Entry-Address)
uboot> fatload mmc 0 0x00ffffc0 bootstrap.uimage uboot> go 0x01000000
Any uImage should be booted using the "bootm" command, not "go".
But, while both kernels (the Uimage and the current mini kernel) are linked for start address 0x01000000, i cannot use the same load address on the mini-Kernel. Now, i have to load and jump to the same address to make it work. Like this:
uboot> fatload mmc 0 0x01000000 miniKernel.bin uboot> go 0x01000000
Why this? How comes the offset with the Uimage?
The uImage file contains a 64 byte header which is interpreted by commands like "iminfo" or "bootm".
Another issue:
Plese do NOT do that. Do not mix topics in a single posting. Please open a new thread instead.
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk
