I had a similar problem I ended up getting it to work with using the following
SET PREFIXING ALL SET PARITY NONE SET CARRIER-WATCH OFF
also ensure there is no handshaking see the kermit manual for more information.
I have placed the above commands in ~/.kermrc so they are picked up by minicom when it calls kermit.
btw they recommend not using minicom for serial transfers, I have used U-boot v 1.1.1 with minicom serial file transfer with no problems though.

I am facing a problem in loading a binary file from minicom. Whenver I try to load, it is going in an infinite loop.
=> loadb 100000 ## Ready for binary (kermit) download to 0x00100000 at 9600 bps...
I configured kermit as told in the DULG/SystemSetup Manual.... Only change I made is
set speed 9600 instead of 115200
I am getting stuck here. After going through the u-boot source code .... The calling sequence is ....
-load_serial_bin -k_recv
Inside k_recv the code where I stucked up here is ...
----------------------------ACTUAL CODE----------------------------------- /* get a packet */ /* wait for the starting character or ^C */ for (;;) { switch (serial_getc ()) { case START_CHAR: /* start packet */ goto START; case ETX_CHAR: /* ^C waiting for packet*/ return (0); default: ; } } ----------------------------ACTUAL CODE UP TO HERE------------------------
I think it continiously in the for loop. When I press control-C then it will come comeout saying ....
## Total Size = 0x00000000 = 0 Bytes ## Start Addr = 0x00100000
Can anyabody help me why it is happening ? Any help will be appreciated.
-regards, -Ashish
