Me again. Found this URL in the meanwhile: https://www.reddit.com/r/chipKIT/comments/dtmg4h/installing_debian_on_pic32/ And indeed such a hex file can be flashed, but U-Boot does not start: U-Boot 2026.01 (Feb 02 2026 - 02:46:10 +0100) Model: Microchip PIC32MZDASK Core: PIC32MZ[DA] CPU Speed: 200 MHz DRAM: 128 MiB Mis-aligned relocation How to fix "Mis-aligned relocation"? I am using gcc 15.2.0 and binutils 2.45.1 to compile U-Boot. best regards Waldemar
