Hi all
I'm using a PPChameleonEVB, and am trying to move the u-boot environment into flash. I've modified the include/configs/PPChameleon.h file as follows:
#define CFG_ENV_IS_IN_FLASH 1 #define CFG_ENV_ADDR 0xFFFFA000 #define CFG_ENV_OFFSET (CFG_ENV_ADDR - 0xFFFC0000) #define CFG_ENV_SIZE 0x2000
I've added some debugging into the section where it reads the environment, and I'm seeing the following:
U-Boot 1.0.2-adh-2004/03/29 (Mar 30 2004 - 13:40:38)

As you can see, the address of the environment before relocation is 0xfffd9474. Shouldn't this be 0xFFFFA000? Is there anything else I need to do to force the location of the environment into the required place?
It looks like the address of the environment is based on the location of the 'environment' variable in common/environment.c. Do I need to change the LD script to force this variable to a certain location? If so, can anyone help with what I need to do (I'm not familiar with LD scripts yet).
Many thanks.
