[U-Boot-Users] running U-boot on ML300 board??
Hello,
When running U-boot on ML300 board, I don't receive any character on the serial port.
I worked so:
*I downloaded a reference design given by xilinx. *With the xparameters.h, I compiled U-boot *I put U-boot in \sw\os\linux\kernel....I rename it on zImage.embedded.
*I generate my ace file, and nothing happens when running it on the ML300 board.
Have I done a mistake? Thanks

Whay the heck do you think U-Boot needs to be copied to some Linux kernel directory?

Attach a debugger, and check what your processoir is doing. Also make sure your serial port is configured correctly, i. e. without flow control, etc.
Have I done a mistake?
Yes, at least one:

Abdelmajid,
after configuring and compiling u-boot for ML300 you will find an ELF file called u-boot in the root directory of u-boot. Now, configure the FPGA on ML300 with the bitstream from the reference design and then use your debugger (e.g. XMD with P4 cable) to download u-boot to and run it on the board.
If you want to generate an ACE file containing u-boot and the bitstream go to the root directory of the reference design and execute the following command: $ xmd genace.tcl -jprog -board ml300 -hw implementation/download.bit -elf <path to u-boot>/u-boot -ace top.ace
Copy the ACE file onto the MicroDrive (e.g. replace the ACE file in xilinx/myace) and run u-boot either by selecting it through the touchscreen or by setting the System ACE CF dial to four.
However, I recommend to first get the cable/debugger method working before you try with the ACE file.
