Your system should have a root directory called /tftpboot Any file that tftp can download from your host system to your target should be in a directory under /tftpboot. Keep things simple and put hello_world.bin file directly in /tftpboot.

As for finding hello_world.bin on your system, you might try... cd / find . -name "hello_world.bin" -print

Note that above command will yield a bunch of warnings if your aren't the superuser or root user.

Hi! Please tell me where can i find hello_world.bin file and where should it be put on the host system to be accessible from u-boot based target system with tftpboot command.

It will be quite helpful for me if you can stepwise describe the procedure as I am unable to understand it from the denx tutorial.

thanks alot

Then it seems this command was not enabled in your board configuration. But you can load the file using TFTP as well.

Ummm.. did you really expect that some magic code would spring into life and do something reasonable when you jump to this address after
