[U-Boot-Users] How can I save zImage & fsimage.tar into Flash memory then boot

[U-Boot-Users] How can I save zImage & fsimage.tar into Flash memory then boot

[Jacob Chan]

Dear all,
I am using the Intel DBPXA255 Lubbock board.
After I download the u-boot.bin via JTAG that using BDI2000.
It can boot but the Ethernet device(SMSC LAN91C96) is not work. So I
using serial download(Kermit mode) zImage to the address 0xa0200000.
loadb 0xa0200000  <-- using HyperTerminal Kermit mode to download
After that I can using go 0xa0200000 to boot linux kernel, but how can I
save it to Flash?
I try cp 0xa0200000 0x00080000 0x000a0578 
After that I reboot the target board and how can I boot the linux
kernel?
I use bootm 0x00080000, but it's not work.
Finally, I wan to save u-boot.bin, zImage and filesystem.tar into Flash
then boot.
What should I need to do? Your reply and support will be highly
appreciated.

Thank you for your time and attention

[U-Boot-Users] How can I save zImage & fsimage.tar into Flash memory then boot

I think this has been discussed on this mailing list before. 

Here is the procedure I use for creating a bootable image for PXA.

arm-linux-objcopy -S -O binary vmlinux linux
gzip -vf9 linux
mkimage -n kernel_name -A arm -O linux -T kernel -C gzip -a a0008000 \
              -e a0008000 -d linux.gz linuxgz.image

I then copy this in to flash at 0x40000 and boot with "bootm 40000". Since I 
use a mtd device as the rootfs there is only a single arg to the bootm 
command.

HTH, Kyle.

[Zhao Hongda]

After do such steps, I try to "bootm 0x40000", but the kernel hangs:
    ## Booting image at 00040000 ...
        Image name:    2.4.18    kernel
        Image Type:    ARM Linux kernel Image (gzip compressed)
        Data Size:        714025 Bytes =697.3kB
        Load Address:   a0008000
        Entry Point:        a0008000
        Verifying Checksum ... OK
        Uncompressing Kernel Image ... OK
    Starting kernel...
    (hangs)
why? should I change some envs?

What are your bootargs? Make sure the console is configured correctly.

console=ttyS0,115200

[U-Boot-Users] How can I save zImage & fsimage.tar into Flash memory then boot

[Zhao Hongda]

my kernel config is (arch/arm/def-configs/lubbock):
...
CONFIG_CMDLINE="root=/dev/nfs ip=bootp console=ttyS0,115200"
...
my u-boot env config is:
...
bootargs=root=/dev/nfs ip=bootp console=ttyS0,115200
...
stdin=serial
stdout=serial
stderr=serial
...

is it right?
