than uImage" (i already tossed the original post so i can't reply to it directly, sorry.)
this recent patch by tom rini to make zImage rather than uImage the default kernel format for am335x_evm: http://lists.denx.de/pipermail/u-boot/2013-September/163365.html seems flawed as the loading will work fine, but the boot will fail as the "bootm" command will still be used rather than "bootz". i just tested it building for my beaglebone black and that's exactly what happens: ... 3250520 bytes read in 552 ms (5.6 MiB/s) 24493 bytes read in 17 ms (1.4 MiB/s) Wrong Image Format for bootm command ERROR: can't get kernel image! ... so all i did as a quick hack was to add the (very specific for my test case) changes to replace "bootm" with "bootz" for only what i needed: @@ -105,21 +105,21 @@ "root=${ramroot} " \ "rootfstype=${ramrootfstype}\0" \ "loadramdisk=load mmc ${mmcdev} ${rdaddr} ramdisk.gz\0" \ - "loaduimage=load mmc ${bootpart} ${loadaddr} ${bootdir}/${bootfile}\0" \ + "loadimage=load mmc ${bootpart} ${loadaddr} ${bootdir}/${bootfile}\0" \ "loadfdt=load mmc ${bootpart} ${fdtaddr} ${bootdir}/${fdtfile}\0" \ "mmcloados=run mmcargs; " \ "if test ${boot_fdt} = yes || test ${boot_fdt} = try; then " \ "if run loadfdt; then " \ - "bootm ${loadaddr} - ${fdtaddr}; " \ + "bootz ${loadaddr} - ${fdtaddr}; " \ "else " \ "if test ${boot_fdt} = try; then " \ - "bootm; " \ + "bootz; " \ "else " \ "echo WARN: Cannot load the DT; " \ "fi; " \ "fi; " \ "else " \ - "bootm; " \ + "bootz; " \ "fi;\0" \ "mmcboot=mmc dev ${mmcdev}; " \ "if mmc rescan; then " \ and the kernel boot worked fine. is this an actual flaw in the patch? or am i doing something silly? rday -- ======================================================================== Robert P.
