[U-Boot] U-Boot serial booting still supported?

[U-Boot] U-Boot serial booting still supported?

[andyjjones]

Hi everyone,

I am trying to boot my custom TI AM3517 board through its serial port.

I downloaded Nishant Menon's "omap-u-boot-utils" and followed the
instructions at: 
http://elinux.org/BeagleBoardRecovery#UART_recovery

Halfway through step 5, at: 
./ukermit -p /dev/ttyS0 -f u-boot.bin

Nothing happens.  The screen just simply hangs and messages come up.  Before
I continue tyring to debug this, I just want to know, is serial booting
still supported under U-Boot?

Andrew

Which U-Boot version is this exactly?  And which exact U-Bootcommands
did you use?

Maybe you can be so kind and tell us which exact "messages come up" ?
