Hi,
I am trying to do some porting for the blackfin bf533 processor. Currently i am working with tftp boot. I am able to transfer a file from the host to the target. Now i need to boot the linux image on the target. I am just taking the bf533 2.4 kernel available in the blackfin site and i want to boot this via tftp.
i just say tftpboot 1000 linux.dxe.
(Actually an elf header gets added to the contents of around 94 bytes. So i even tried loading the linux.dxe to (1000 - 94), i have compared the objdump with the VDSP contents. Its just 1to1.
when i say go 1000, it simply hangs. When i try to stop VDSP and load the PC with 1000 and say go also it hangs. Do i need to do something else?
I also tried by creating uImage as mentioned under README. Is it really required?
Pls let me know how can i boot this linux image from my bootloader?
