I manage to load your elf file on kvx using bootm (I do not have net boot)
and here is what I get:
--------------------------------------------
Board: KONIC 200 (K200)
malloc space: 0x110306050 -> 0x200000000 (size 3.7 GiB)
export: No such file or directory
Hit any to stop autoboot: 3
barebox:/ bootm env/ore-linux-dpt-module
Entry Point: 80980000
Loading ELF 'env/ore-linux-dpt-module'
Loading phdr to 0x0000000080980000 (2740416 bytes)
...
--------------------------------------------
So one segment is loaded which is correct according to readelf.
elf file is correct and can be loaded using bootm.
Could you try loading it using bootm directly ?
This will confirm if it's related to net boot or not (although I don't
know what are the underlying differences).
Thanks,
Clément
