There are issues with ecc/nand: the original image has the hardware ecc turned off. > Yes, U-Boot still works. Just to be clear about the letux-400 vs the epc700: - We know how to boot an image from sd on the epc700. But the key combo for this is the same that flashes the kernel on the letux-400. - We know that the letux-400 can do a lot more (like tftpbooting), but we just don't know the key combo yet :-(. The only thing we know is how to flash an uImage, and boot it. > No, I think there is no ecc/nand issue - it is just that the 2.6 kernel is > too big for the partition and/or only > partially copied to flash. Therefore the attempt to load but CRC fails. The easiest way is to use kexec but I don't know if it works. If I am correct (and not substituting another embedded system in my mind), the image may be as large as 1.5MB. > > For kernel 2.6 we need to copy uImage manually with, cat uImage /dev/mtd1, > > but first any nand ecc issues need to be resolved. good luck with JTAG > > setup. Hmmm, just wondering if I can use a cas3+ interface for that (from duo labs). > The reason may be that the 2.6 kernel is bigger and the automatic mode of > U-Boot doesn't copy it completely. Yes, I know there were some weird discrepancies in the size of the partition, and the size that is actually copied. -- .signature not found _______________________________________________ Mipsbook-devel mailing list Mipsbook-devel@linuxtogo.org http://lists.linuxtogo.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mipsbook-devel
