Re: beagleboard and latest from git

[Robert Berger <gmane@reliableembeddedsystems.com>]

Hi,

I switched a bit around between various versions in the meantime and
that's what I figured out:

1) the latest u-boot (or some configuration of it) from git does not
seem to work for the beagleboard

2) if I use U-Boot 2011.03-00038-g8d4addc-dirty (May 13 2011 - 00:01:02)
which comes with bernard-5.0.1 things look much better.

U-Boot 2010.12-00038-g8d4addc-dirty (May 13 2011 - 08:44:08) is the
suspect. Why does the latest and greatest from git use an older u-boot
version than bernard 5.0.1?

I interrupt the u-boot autoboot and do the following:

OMAP3 beagleboard.org # sete console "ttyO2,115200n8"
OMAP3 beagleboard.org # mmc rescan ${mmcdev}
OMAP3 beagleboard.org # run loaduimage
reading uImage

2632316 bytes read
OMAP3 beagleboard.org # run mmcboot

and voila:

Yocto (Built by Poky 5.0) 1.0+snapshot-20110512 beagleboard ttyO2

beagleboard login: root
root@beagleboard:~#

This time even with networking.

This means that the latest and greatest rootfs seems OK.

Regards,

Robert
