+******************** WARNING ********************
|
|
|
+The compiled U-Boot binary is intended for NAND flash only!
|
|
|
+It won't work for NOR and will brick that bootloader!
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+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 NAND.
|
|
|
+******************** 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 MPC8315ERDB switches to NAND boot if you want to use
|
|
|
+your newly built U-Boot.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+1. Program the new U-Boot binary to NAND 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-nand.bin
|
|
|
+ => nand erase 0 0x80000
|
|
|
+ => nand write $loadaddr 0 0x80000 $filesize
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+2. Program the kernel to NAND flash
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ => tftp $loadaddr uImage
|
|
|
+ => nand erase 0x100000 0x1e0000
|
|
|
+ => nand write $loadaddr 0x100000 0x1e0000
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+3. Program the DTB to NAND flash
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ => tftp $loadaddr mpc8315erdb.dtb
|
|
|
+ => nand erase 0x2e0000 0x20000
|
|
|
+ => nand write $loadaddr 0x2e0000 0x20000
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+4. Program the root filesystem to NAND flash
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ => tftp $loadaddr rootfs.jffs2
|
|
|
+ => nand erase 0x400000 0x1c00000
|
|
|
+ => nand write $loadaddr 0x400000 $filesize
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+5. Booting your new system
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ => setenv nandboot 'setenv bootargs root=/dev/mtdblock3 rootfstype=jffs2 console=$consoledev,$baudrate;nand read $fdtaddr 0x2e0000 0x20000;nand read $loadaddr 0x100000 0x1e0000;bootm $loadaddr - $fdtaddr'
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ If you want to set this boot option as default:
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ => setenv bootcmd 'run nandboot'
|
|
|
+ => saveenv
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ ...or for a single boot:
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ => run nandboot
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ You can login with user "root".
