Hi! I'm using U-Boot 1.3.4 and Linux 2.6.26.5 on MPC8323E-RDB. After using fw_printenv in Linux, erase and saveenv stop working in U-Boot. In Linux, fw_* still work.
When using erase, this is the result: => protect off fe040000 fe05ffff Un-Protected 1 sectors => erase fe040000 fe05ffff Flash erase error at address fe040000 Block Erase Error. Block locked. done Erased 1 sectors => md fe040000 fe040000: c7be9eae 626f6f74 636d643d 73657465 ....bootcmd=sete fe040010: 6e762062 6f6f7461 72677320 726f6f74 nv bootargs root ... So the sector doesn't get erased. Errors are similar when using saveenv: => saveenv Saving Environment to Flash... Un-Protected 1 sectors Erasing Flash... Flash erase error at address fe040000 Block Erase Error. Block locked. done Erased 1 sectors I tracked the error message down to cfi_flash.c, where this function call fails: flash_isequal (info, sector, 0, FLASH_STATUS_DONE) However, I have no clue on how CFI works, so my ability to debug it further stops here. A possible reason I can think of is that the ioctl calls in fw_setenv are somehow messing up the Flash status. Any ideas? -- Petri Lehtinen Inoi Oy Tel. : +358 40 758 0229 Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ U-Boot mailing list [email protected] http://lists.denx.de/mailman/listinfo/u-boot
