Hi
I have a Tegra2 based board (Harmony) running Linux. It is currently booting
using the fastboot.bin bootloader shipped with NVIDIA's SDK Developer Kit, but
I need to replace it for U-Boot, because U-Boot is open source.
So far I've been able to successfully deploy U-Boot on the device using nvflash
and U-Boot actually runs. However, nvflash hangs waiting for the bootloader to
finish initializing and therefore flashing won't happen. Apparently nvflash is
expecting the bootloader to follow some protocol, which U-Boot apparently
is not aware of.
I'd really appreciate any help on this and I'm sorry in advance if this is not
the right forum to publish this question. It has been really hard to find
information on the web about this. Furthermore, I haven't been able to find
nvflash source code anywhere, which could help tremendously to investigate
what's going on; if at least someone could point me to where I can download
I'd be deeply grateful.
So, this is what I'm using to flash the bootloader:
sudo ./nvflash --bct flash.bct --setbct --configfile flash.cfg --create
--bl u-boot-dtb.bin --go
(I've updated the file name of the bootloader in flash.cfg, but apparently it
doen't affect the outcome)
The output is this:
----------------------------------------

waiting for bootloader to initialize
----------------------------------------
And it hangs while U-Boot has actually started executing in the device. If I
reset the board, nvflash unblocks and prints out the following output:
----------------------------------------

bootloader failed NvError 0x0
command failure: bootloader download failed
----------------------------------------
Many thanks in advance!
