Re: [U-Boot-Users] Replacing AT91 u-boot

May be into boot.bin there were some setting necessary for the system ?
Nargh. Please forget boot.bin. You will not need it any more.
AFAIK nobody (either Atmel) uses u-boot stored at the beginning of the flash (as many others ARM board producers do), but AT91 uses a pre-bootloader.
I don't know where you got this "knowledge" from, but it is plain wrong.
Confusing news from AT91 website about boot.bin / loader.bin [ You need to download a "boot.bin" into the first sector. The boot.bin may need to know about which flash you are using. loader.bin has the same problem. .snip. Ulf Samuelsson ]

AFAIK loader.bin is used to download boot.bin to RAM location. boot.bin itself is an u-boot binary image. It is straight executed after downloading. Now it's possible to install a new u-boot version.
