I have not worked on P2 in a long time, but I recall that I used Code
Composer Studio with JTAG to download u-boot to the board.  CCS can load
ELF file formats, which is what u-boot is.  After downloading u-boot,
run it and then use it to flash u-boot.bin.  Remember that 'u-boot' is
the ELF executable that CCS can load while 'u-boot.bin' is the flat
binary file that you flash to the board.

Hi,

I'm really in the need of answers for this case because I cannot get any
progress with this thing. So I'm daring to send this mail also to you
few
people who have been conversating here about 730 P2 during last month.
The
question is still: how have you managed to download u-boot to 730?

I hope I don't bother anybody too much when I'm sending the mail
directly
and apologies in case I do. In case you cannot answer to this e.g. due
to
customers etc. it is totally ok, just forget this.

Cheers,

/O
