[U-Boot] Burning U-boot on 460EX using BDI3000

[U-Boot] Burning U-boot on 460EX using BDI3000

[Felix Radensky]

Hi,

Can U-boot be burned on 460EX based board (using BDI3000)
without configuring DDR controller ? The BDI configuration file
for Canyonlands board on Denx site
http://www.denx.de/wiki/view/DULG/Appendix#Section_13.1.
has no DDR setup, but also doesn't work on Canyonlands
(fails on flash erase). The configuration file from AMCC site
does work, but it contains full DDR setup.

Thanks a lot.

Felix.

It should be possible.

A BDI2000 configuration file flash section looks
something like this:

; =================================================================
[FLASH]
CHIPTYPE    MIRRORX16   ;Flash type: Spansion S29GL256N 32MB
CHIPSIZE    0x2000000   ;The size of one flash chip in bytes
BUSWIDTH    16          ;The width of the flash memory bus in bits
                         ; (8 | 16 | 32 | 64)
;WORKSPACE   0x1000      ;workspace in DDR RAM
FILE        u-boot-1.3.1.bin
FORMAT      BIN 0xfe000000
ERASE       0xfe000000  ;erase sector 0 (128kB sectors)
ERASE       0xfe020000  ;erase sector 1


Make sure to comment out WORKSPACE, and the BDI should
be able to program the board flash without needing DDR
configured.

Cheers,
Dave

Hi Felix,

Here is my BDI configuration file for Canyonlands.

This one should work for you. This one configures OCM instead DDR.

Hi,

Can U-boot be burned on 460EX based board (using BDI3000) without
configuring DDR controller ? The BDI configuration file for Canyonlands
board on Denx site
http://www.denx.de/wiki/view/DULG/Appendix#Section_13.1.
has no DDR setup, but also doesn't work on Canyonlands (fails on flash
erase). The configuration file from AMCC site does work, but it contains
full DDR setup.

Thanks a lot.

Felix.
