[U-Boot] Problems with all boot-possibilties

Hey guys,
I have a Freescale MPC8313E and want to boot with u.-boot 1.3.0 (there is no newer version avaiable, see also other thread). There are 3 possibilities documented, how to boot. Nothing works:
1. NFS file system: ********************** The first, easiest possibility to boot and test the image and kernel is the NFS-boot. The environment is set correctly (I hope):
# ipaddr: 10.193.20.184 # eth1addr: 00:E0:0C:00:7E:21 # serverip: 10.193.20.61 # gatewayip: 10.193.20.254 # bootargs: root=/dev/nfs rw nfsroot=10.193.20.61:/tftpboot/10.193.20.184ip=10.193.20.184:10 .193.20.61:10.193.20.254:255.255.255.0:mpc8313erdb:eth1:off panic=1 console=ttyS0,115200
The NFS-server is running on 10.193.20.61, IP of the board is 10.193.20.184.
I have shutdown the firewall, but opened the needed ports too (875,32803,32769,892,662,2020) for UDP and TCP.
In /etc/exports, the NFS is allowed to enter the folder:
# /tftpboot/10.193.20.184 10.193.20.184/255.255.255.0(rw,no_root_squash,asynch)
SELinux is deactivated, hosts.deny is empty,
If i started the transmission via TFTP, everything is correct: # tftp 200000 /uImage # tftp 400000 /mpc8313erdb.dtb # bootm 200000 - 400000
The result:
# (...) # Looking up port of RPC 100003/2 on 10.193.20.61 # PHY: 0:01 - Link is Up - 1000/Full # rpcbind: server 10.193.20.61 not responding, timed out # Root-NFS: Unable to get nfsd port number from server, using default # Looking up port of RPC 100005/1 on 10.193.20.61 # rpcbind: server 10.193.20.61 not responding, timed out # Root-NFS: Unable to get mountd port number from server, using default # mount: server 0.0.0.16 not responding, timed out # Root.NFS: Server returned error -5 while mounting /tftpboot/10.193.20.184 # (...)
So, something went wrong.
2. and 3. Ramdisk / JFFS2 ******************************* Both possibilities need more than 8 MB on bootable flash memory. We only have 8 MB.
So, is it possible to boot from SD with this old version of u-boot? Or can i decrease the image with packing? Is there another way to make it?
So long, David

Version 1.3.0 is only a month away from celebrating its 4th birthday and it is highly unlikely that anyone here has the inclination to support it.
Having had a look in the boards.cfg file in the current git repository there are several MPC8313ERDB based configurations and I have a much later version of u-boot on my MPC8313ERDB board and when I have some time free I will upgrade to the 2011.09 version when it is released.

You mean this one, where it was pointed out that you should just build the current source tree?

If you want a BSP with up-to-date binary images, or support for what Freescale gave you, talk to support@freescale.com.

This is Linux, not U-Boot.
