+******************** WARNING ********************
|
|
|
+The compiled U-Boot binary is intended for NOR flash only!
|
|
|
+It won't work for NAND or SPI and will brick those bootloaders!
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+Also don't go playing around with different U-boot versions or flash targets
|
|
|
+unless you've got the necessary hardware and/or know-how to unbrick your kit.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+2012.10 is known good for NOR, but BAD for NAND and SPI.
|
|
|
+******************** WARNING ********************
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+You'll need to program the files created by buildroot into the flash.
|
|
|
+The fast way is to tftp transfer the files via one of the network interfaces.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+Alternatively you can transfer the files via serial console with an Ymodem
|
|
|
+file transfer from your terminal program by using a "loady" command
|
|
|
+from the u-boot prompt instead of the "tftp ..." commands stated below.
|
|
|
+Beware that serial console file transfers are quite slow!
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+Remember to set the P1010RDB switches to NOR boot if you want to use
|
|
|
+your newly built U-Boot.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+1. Program the new U-Boot binary to NOR flash (optional)
|
|
|
+ If you don't feel confident upgrading your bootloader then don't do it,
|
|
|
+ it's unnecessary most of the time.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ => tftp $loadaddr u-boot.bin
|
|
|
+ => protect off 0xeff80000 +$filesize
|
|
|
+ => erase 0xeff80000 +$filesize
|
|
|
+ => cp.b $loadaddr 0xeff80000 $filesize
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+2. Program the DTB to NOR flash
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ => tftp $loadaddr p1010rdb.dtb
|
|
|
+ => erase 0xee000000 +$filesize
|
|
|
+ => cp.b $loadaddr 0xee000000 $filesize
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+3. Program the kernel to NOR flash
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ => tftp $loadaddr uImage
|
|
|
+ => erase 0xee080000 +$filesize
|
|
|
+ => cp.b $loadaddr 0xee080000 $filesize
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+4. Program the root filesystem to NOR flash
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ => tftp $loadaddr rootfs.jffs2
|
|
|
+ => erase 0xee800000 0xeff5ffff
|
|
|
+ => cp.b $loadaddr 0xee800000 $filesize
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+5. Booting your new system
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ => setenv norboot 'setenv bootargs root=/dev/mtdblock2 rootfstype=jffs2 console=$consoledev,$baudrate;bootm 0xee080000 - 0xee000000'
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ If you want to set this boot option as default:
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ => setenv bootcmd 'run norboot'
|
|
|
+ => saveenv
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ ...or for a single boot:
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ => run norboot
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ You can login with user "root".
