Re: Freescale boot kernel

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



i did get to loading the kernel from file system but hangs. <probably the kernel im trying to use>
 
ext2load mmc 0:1 0x70800000 /boot/uImage-2.6.39.3-sheevaplug; bootm 0x70800000
 
Notice the name on the uImage which is a kernel i compiled with a modified kernel built with a modied kirkwood config...
 
Do i need to compile another kernel with seperate config for the freescale device with arm7 instead of armv5tel?
 
I would probably think so...and does anone have a prebuilt kernel and or the config name they used?
 
or am i just out in left field with the load address?
 
also, when using the "mmc 0:1" how do i change those parameters to load from mmc slot 2 "big slot" instead of the small mmc slot.

Your default boot commant is not very friendly, loading the kernel from
raw blocks on the mmc controller (sd card etc).

I would recommend you make a new bootcmd_ext2 which uses ext2load to
load the kernel. Much easier to change kernel that way. Then change
bootcmd to refer to that one when verified working.
