Steve,

 

It isn’t foolproof, but you can at least reality check that you have successfully updated by checking the size of the uImage file.  Just pause u-boot to put it in command mode and type

# imls

 

Here’s the printout from my board, whick I believe is updated with the 1_10 kernel:

DaVinci EVM # imls

Image at 02050000:

   Image Name:   Linux-2.6.10_mvl401-davinci_evm

   Image Type:   ARM Linux Kernel Image (uncompressed)

   Data Size:    1333196 Bytes =  1.3 MB

   Load Address: 80008000

   Entry Point:  80008000

   Verifying Checksum ... OK

 

 

The kernel size (1333196) should exactly match if you are using the uImage that comes with the kit without rebuilding it with any modifications.  The imls will also tell you which version of the :Linux kernel you are using (i.e. relative to the open source Linux world – 2.6.10 ), but I don’t know of any way to explicitly print out version information that would tell you which version of the DVEVM/DVSDK the kernel comes from.

Actually, i have updated uImage already.

 

But i do not know is it success or not.

 

I check mu u-boot-version is U-Boot 1.1.3 and i also follow the u-boot-upgrade.html to upgrade uImage.

 

How can i check this?

 

Steve
