Hi.
I'm trying to use an evaluation board with U-boot to load and run a vxworks6.8 image for PPC CPU. I'm using TFTP to download the image to address 0x100000. After that I tried several ways to start running the image, and failed in every way. I tried bootvx, bootelf, and several other ways. In all cases I got a machine exception error, and the board restarted.
What can be the cuases for that? Can it be thatt he image is too big? I have 256MB of RAM on the board, and the image is 23MB.
Or maybe I'm doing something wrong?
Thanks, Ofer

it could be anything. Can you send us the session log using the latest u-boot?
