Hi Wolfgang Denk, Thank you very much for your reply. First of all, sorry for the confusion created in my previous email.
Before describing the actual problem, I would like to share the board and uboot details as below. Board: Freescale CPU: e300c3, MPC8315E, Rev: 1.2 at 400 MH3 MHz I2C:y DRAFLASH: 8 MB NAND: 32 MiB U-boot version: U-Boot 2009.03-rc2 (Dec 27 2012 - 13:41:26) MPC83XX (this is as per "version" command on my u-boot) Coming to the problem details, I have written few customized applications to test RAM, Nand & Nor flash of my freescale board. I compiled the applications using powerpc libraries (powerpc-e300c3-linux-gnu) and created ELF executable files. I converted the ELF executables to binary format using the command "powerpc-e300c3-linux-gnu-objcopy". When i tftp the binary files and run on u-boot giving the entry-point address(using "go" command), the u-boot is getting reset. So, i want to know how can i overcome this situation and execute my binary file successfully. This is the first part as per your email. The above procedure is executed with the reference: http://www.denx.de/wiki/view/DULG/MyStandaloneProgramDoesNotWork The second part is about integrating my applications as part of u-boot examples/apis permanenetly so that i can run them whenever i wish to. For example, i see the command "echo" and can run it on u-boot prompt anytime. Can i also embed my application and make it as part of commands. The whole idea is to make my binaries part of u-boot when it gets loaded. Sorry for a lengthy email. Please let me know if you still require any further details. Thank you. Warm Regards, -Krishna ________________________________________ From: Wolfgang Denk [[email protected]] Sent: Thursday, December 27, 2012 6:26 PM To: Krishna Mohan Chagaleti Cc: [email protected]; [email protected] Subject: Re: [U-Boot] powerpc/mpc8315erdb : Integration of customized source code to u-boot Dear Krishna Mohan Chagaleti, In message <[email protected]> you wrote: > > I have been trying to test and integrate my customized binary on u-boot. > > I tried the procedure of executing the example demo application > (hello_world.bin) by downloading binary using tftp and executing it. > But, it didn't help though.

Please explan what you really want to do. The first part sounds as if you wanted to run some standalone applications written by yourself. The second part ("run as commands") sounds as if you wanted to extend the functionality of U-Boot itself. Please note that these are different things. > Please let me know if you require more details. Yes, we need a lot more details, see above.
