Have you set ipaddr environment variable ?
 
Try setting that and check your bootcmd also. On my board it is  'tftp;bootm'

Hi All,


Thanks a lot for your suggestions.

i tried setting the staic ip address as below in 'bootargs'


ip=$<clientip>:$<serverip>:$<gatewayip>:$<netmask>::off


But still i cannot bootup. 
One more doubt that i have is: When we connect this device to a PC, the "Local 
Area Connection" should show status as "Connected". Right? But i find it 
"Disconnected"... i am beginning to wonder if this is hardware issue with this 
EVM board?
How can i make sure of this? Please advise. 


Regards,
Pradeep.

Try adding the gateway ip too to your bootargs 'ip' parameter.
See this-
http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
om/msg07462.html
Ip has to be given as
ip=<client-ip>:<server-ip>:<gw-ip>:<netmask>:<hostname>:<device>:<autoco
nf>

You can see whether the requests are coming to your host in
/var/log/messages -

Hope this helps.

Cheers,
Deepak

Hi,



I set static ip address and removed ip=dhcp from bootargs. Below is the
list of environment values that i have set here.

 bootdelay=3

baudrate=115200

setenv=bootcmd nboot 80700000 0 a0000

bootfile=/tftpboot/uImage

rootpsth=/home/pradeep_6467/workdir/filesys

autoload=yes

ip=192.168.1.50 <http://192.168.1.50/>

serverip=192.168.1.111 <http://192.168.1.111/>


bootcmd=nboot 80700000 0 a0000

stdin=serial

stdout=serial

stderr=serial

ethaddr=00:0e:99:02:b3:47

ipaddr=192.168.1.2 <http://192.168.1.2/>

serverip=192.168.1.100 <http://192.168.1.100/>

netmask=255.255.255.0 <http://255.255.255.0/>


rootpath=/home/pradeep_6467/workdir/filesys

bootargs=console=ttyS0,115200n8 noinitrd rw
ip=192.168.1.2:(serverip):255.255.255.0::off root=/dev/nfs
nfsroot=192.168.1.100:/home/<user account>/workdir/filesys,

nolock mem=120M

nfshost=192.168.1.100 <http://192.168.1.100/>




Environment size: 593/131068 bytes

And then I tried to boot the device. I got the following messages:

Loading from NAND 128MiB 3,3V 8-bit, offset 0xa0000

  Image Name:   Linux-2.6.10_mvl401-davinci_evm

  Image Type:   ARM Linux Kernel Image (uncompressed)

  Data Size:    1390892 Bytes =  1.3 MB

  Load Address: 80008000

  Entry Point:  80008000

Is this what I am to expect?

Thanks and regards,

Pradeep.

       Pradeep,

       This can happen if you are using ip=dhcp in your bootargs but
there is no DHCP server. If you are using static IP address, remove
ip=dhcp from your bootargs. You can also disable DHCP support from
menuconfig under Networking Options if you are using static IP address.

       Regards, Sudhakar

       Hi All,

       I am working on DM6467 EVM. The problem is when i bootup the
board I get the following message "Sending DHCP requests...timed out!
       IP-config: Retrying forever (NFS root)....". I suspect it is
something to do with the u-boot configuration? (I am not sure though).
Can anyone please help me out on this?

       Thanks in advance,
       Pradeep,
