Hello, Thanks Nicolas for the pointer!.
I was able to successfully flash the u-boot code to NAND flash by following the instruction given in http://wiki.davincidsp.com/index.php?title=Flashing_NAND_Flash Steps I have followed are: 1. Read the wiki page. 2. Go to the ti site to down load the latest u-boot binary for nand flash. In fact I have down loaded the software from the URL https://www-a.ti.com/extranet/cm/product/dvevmsw/dspswext/general/v1_20_00.shtml, (miscellaneous component) after logging in. One needs to have a login access by registering the DVEVM board . 3. Use Windows machine to run the DVFlash executable 4. Flash the u-boot NAND flash binary (readily available in TI site, misc component). 5. Reboot the board with correct settings (Jumper 4 and S3 switch settings) 6. Board is up with latest u-boot. I still have the old u-boot in NOR flash, not touched. I had no bootable software in NAND flash. I have freshly written the same using DVFlash executable. This does not need Code composer studio and JTAG to update the u-boot. Really very handy!. Thanks for TI's effort in this direction. ________________________________________ From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Nicolas Cadio [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, August 28, 2008 1:01 PM To: Chris Stillson; [email protected] Subject: Re : how to write a serial ubl Hi chris, you will find some information with the spraai4, you can download it at this adress : http://focus.ti.com/dsp/docs/dspsupporttechdocsc.tsp?sectionId=3&tabId=409&familyId=1302&abstractName=spraai4<http://focus.ti.com/dsp/docs/dspsupporttechdocsc.tsp?sectionId=3&tabId=409&familyId=1302&abstractName=spraai4%20> Regards, ________________________________ Nicolas Cadio ENSSAT, EII2 ________________________________ ----- Message d'origine ---- De : Chris Stillson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> À : "[email protected]" <[email protected]> Envoyé le : Jeudi, 28 Août 2008, 0h19mn 08s Objet : how to write a serial ubl I understand that a UBL loaded over serial is loaded at 0x100. Is there anything else I need to know about a UBL loaded over serial? Are there special magic numbers that need to be loaded, or will any UBL made to run from address 0x100 work?
