Nitin,

3) U-boot is capable of running from flash or ram. Try adding these lines to u-boot's makefile. Add them just before the u-boot.hex lines.

$(obj)u-boot.out:    $(obj)u-boot
       $(CROSS_COMPILE)strip $< -o $@
       $(CROSS_COMPILE)strip --only-keep-debug $< -o [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Also add the .out file to the ALL line:

ALL = $(obj)u-boot.out $(obj)u-boot.srec $(obj)u-boot.bin $(obj)System.map $(U_BOOT_NAND)

This will make a .out file by default.  You can load it in CCS and run.

Hi all,

I am using DV EVM (DM6446) from spectrum digital.

I need your suggestion and clarifications.

Since our custom board, based on DM6446 has a Intel NOR flash(on CS2) only

and does not have Ethernet port, I am planning to use DV_Flasher utility (with serial port)

   to load and execute the boot code(ubl and u-boot).

I am confused after reading all these documents on Booting/Flashing etc etc...

    1) Do I need both ubl and u-boot for NOR flash programming?

2) can I download and run Uboot from DDRSDRAM through serial port for the first time on the custom board?

3) How do I build u-boot-ram.bin for DDR RAM only ? So that I can load it from CCS and verify the board

Any of you guys have done similar stuff; please suggest me how to go ahead with serial port.

Thanks and Regards,

Nitin Joshi
