You can also use USB DFU for this where you can transfer files to RAM or NAND partitions. DFU is not yet supported in Denx's uboot tree but is Available in openmoko's tree [http://git.openmoko.org/?p=u-boot.git;a=summary]. You will have to port back DFU feature from openmoko to Denx's tree. -Ajay > > Because of some constraints, we have to implement all this stuff at u-boot > level, instead of doing it in OS(Linux) level. > > Regards, > Yogesh > > --- On Tue, 6/8/10, Wolfgang Denk <[email protected]> wrote: > > From: Wolfgang Denk <[email protected]> > Subject: Re: [U-Boot] U-boot: Beagle board as a USB Mass Storage Device > Class > To: "yogesh b" <[email protected]> > Cc: [email protected] > Date: Tuesday, June 8, 2010, 12:51 PM > > Dear yogesh b, > > In message <[email protected]> you wrote: > > > > I want to make the Beagle board (with u-boot) to look like a USB Mass > > Storage Device when it is connected to the host PC.
