Hi all,

I'm working on an mcf5272 based board that has 32MB of Flash arranged in uniform sectors of 64KB and 16MB of SDRAM.

I've managed to get u-boot to start from Flash and successfully relocate to SDRAM. Below is the debug output from the console:

DRAM: 16 MB Reserving 217k for U-Boot at: 00fc9000 Reserving 256k for malloc() at: 00f89000 Reserving 64 Bytes for Board Info at: 00f88fc0 Reserving 48 Bytes for Global Data at: 00f88f90 Reserving 64k for boot parameters at: 00f78f90 Stack Pointer at: 00f78f78 Start relocate of code from fe000400 to 00fc9000 Now running in RAM - U-Boot at: 00fc9000 FLASH: flash_protect ON: from 0xFE000000 to 0xFE03FFFF protect on 0 protect on 1 protect on 2 protect on 3 32 MB In: serial Out: serial Err: serial U-Boot relocated to 00fc9000 No PHY device found. ### main_loop entered: bootdelay=5

### main_loop: bootcmd="<UNDEFINED>"

I've configured the hello_world example program to run from SDRAM at 0x40000. Here's a dump of the elf headers:

I can load the resultant binary using the loadb command but an exception is generated when I attempt to run the program:

-> loadb ## Ready for binary (kermit) download to 0x00040000 at 19200 bps... ## Total Size = 0x000022b0 = 8880 Bytes ## Start Addr = 0x00040000 -> go 40004 ## Starting application at 0x00040004 ...

*** Unexpected exception *** Vector Number: 4 Format: 04 Fault Status: 0

*** Please Reset Board! ***

I had a look at what's going on with the debugger - hello_world is jumping to an incorrect address (0xff97b8). This happens at the very start of the program.

I've read through the README and DULG I've scoured the mailing list archive. I still haven't been able to come up with a solution. Any ideas as to what I could be doing wrong??

Thanks for any help you can give.

Regards, Jim...
