Nitin,
DaVinci USB support has been added recently to U-Boot. You could
build a new U-Boot with USB support enabled.
With this support you can access USB Sticks/HDD directly from U-Boot. You can
copy the respective Kernel, file system images from the USB Stick. This I
think will significantly expedite your development process.
Regards
swami

Subject: RE: Kernel and FS download through USB to EVM/custom board's NOR flash
Hi Swami,
Thanks for the quick response.
The serial download which I am doing it now for kernel and Ramdisk is taking
around 20 min.
Method I am following is loadb(via Kermit) followed by cp.b to NOR via
HyperTerminal.
So, I just thought some USB tool is already available to download (to NOR) from
Linux.
Please let us know, Is there any other way from U-Boot/Linux for faster
downloading
Thanks and Regards,
Nitin Joshi

Hi all
I have a quick question regarding USB download. i.e
I would like to download my Kernel and FS (presently Ramdisk) into the NOR
flash through USB.
Is there any way to do that?
I am doing it through serial port as we do not have an Ethernet port on our
custom board.
Other details:
- Board is based on DM6446
Please let me know if there is any way to download through USB
Thanks and Regards,
Nitin Joshi
