Better yet (IMHO): just enable the zboot command in U-Boot to let you
boot a zImage binary directly.
I wish it were that easy but it isn't. I've no idea where to get a
version of uboot for my boards which supports that; TI have always
supplied updates to uboot for me, and with the current state of TI
being afaict in chaos.
TI have always supplied a replacement X-Loader with each uboot update.
I've no idea what X-Loader is or why both get updated together, but...
Moreover, I doubt that the 3430LDP, of which there are multiple
versions,
will ever see a uboot update. It already suffers from a lack of
correct
kernel support due to random wiring changes between these versions
(the
keypad doesn't work correctly) and I've yet to indentify which version
it is despite downloading the circuits. So trying to locate the right
uboot will be impossible there.
So, I'm _stuck_ with uImages for these platforms.
Right, so I'm now passing LOADADDR= which allows this to work - and the
latest OMAP4430SDP boot result shows almost the same sad broken story.
I just tried latest mainline (commit: 04c2eee5) and default config
just boots fine.
Please read the notes at the bottom of the page, specifically:
* Build tree is currently created on an ad-hoc basis from Linus'
tip, rmk's
development tip and arm-soc for-next branches.
This system does *not* build and boot vanilla mainline kernels. It is
(as the above says):
- Linus' tip
- My for-next plus a few other bits
- arm-soc for-next
all merged together.
Linus' tip(commit: 04c2eee5) + arm-soc for-next boots fine as well.
The pull request from Tony [1] fixed the multi-platform boot issue
for OMAP.
Now trying to merge your for-next and test.
This is fine as well. I think the issue is the way uImage is created.
'make LOADADDRESS=XXXX uImage' actually doesn't work. Am using below
method to create an uImage.
mkimage -A arm -O linux -T kernel -C none -a 0x80008000 -e 0x80008000 -n
"Linux" -d zImage uImage
Will you be able to try this out please ?

Santosh
