[U-Boot] MPC8306SOM U-Boot issue
Hi, Im using a board similar to MPC8306SOM, We are using the same DDR, NOR, NAND and Processor. Even the part number is not changed. We tried to boot U-Boot from NOR flash, but there is no response on the Serial Console. We checked the data lines and address lines, everything appears to be working. We noticed that processor is keeping the chip select continuously. We suspected the reset configuration word, but it appeared normal to.
So we thought trying NAND flash, we get "NAND boot...transfering control" and nothing happens. We checked the jump address everything appears ok. When we google it, we saw many others facing the same issue as we are facing. Kindly guide us in what needs to be done.

Similar is not good enough. If there are _any_ differences, you must adapt U-Boot to these = port U-Boot to your hardware. There is no way around that.
OK, you can close your eyes, pray to <indert your favorite deity here> and/or sacrifice a chicken - this may work, but more likely it doesn't. Or it appears to work, to fallon your feet all the harder a few steps further down the road.

You need to port U-Boot to your hardware.
