Thanks I will be looking for an eNET board. I am doing several Pentium U-boot projects.
An eNET board may be difficult to come by - They are a Remote Telemetry Unit (RTU) developed by Serck Controls in Australia but now manufactured by Control Microsystems in Canada (both companies are now subsiduaries of Schneider Electric). They are used to monitor and control water pumping stations, bore fields, reservoirs etc. They are not very usefull as a U-Boot development platform - The only reason I have one is that I work for Serck Controls and managed to convince someone to give me one that had been sent back for repairs but was deemed 'not fit for service'.
You could always buy one from Control Microsystems, but be warned, they are not exactly cheap ;)
As I said before, I am willing to help you get your Pentium projects running.
Hey so the 'make all' command makes the tool chain and the U-boot code itself. How do I just complie the U-boot source code now that I have the tool chain.
I think you might mean that it makes 'tools' and 'u-boot.bin' - 'tools' is not a toolchain - They are a set of executables that can be used in Linux to access the U-Boot environment etc. If you just want to build the binary, 'make u-boot.bin' may be what you need (someone will correct me if I'm wrong)
Regards,
Graeme

I am looking at the source code for the sc520 and can not figure out which board directory to look in. Which of the board plat form has the sc520?
The only board which currently builds for the sc520 is the eNET board
Also How do I configure for the sc520 board? How do I do a build for the sc520?
- Get the latest source using git
- make eNET_config
- make all
I doubt that will be much help though, as you will need an eNET board to run it on :)
If you have another x86 based board you want to get U-Boot running on, I am more than willing to help with advice and the odd bit of code
Regards,
Graeme
