Hi ,

I am using Nomadik (nmdk88810) / ARM926-EJS processor.It has internel RAM of ( Tightly Coupled Memory ) 40 KB.

I would like to test the internel RAM. i.e I want to write some pattern on it and read it.

My idea is to use u-boot to check it ,since u -boot has different memory commands for memory check and memory test.

I have a u-boot 1.1.1 from ST microelectronics for nmdk88810.After building u-boot the binary ( Uboot.bin) size is 146 KB. Which gets loaded to FLASH and hence RAM of the board. (The Development board has internal (Processor) and external memory).

I was thinking of stripping of unnecessary functionality from the u-boot to achieve my goal.

i.e i don't want to have networking library / functionality. Simiarly i don't need to have file system library /functionality

Am i following the right approch?

is it possible to just make changes in the Top level Makefile of uboot and achieve this ?

Is there any better way around ?

I am looking for some pointers from you.
