[U-Boot] Problem with board bring up with 8308 processor.

[U-Boot] Problem with board bring up with 8308 processor.

[Sharath Kurudi]

HI,
    I am new to U boot. I am trying to port a custom board with 8308
processor, Uboot code is stored on a NOR flash. I am able to program the NOR
flash. I am using a BDI programmer to program the UBOOT.
1) For some reason, the booting stops with COP status 5.
2) I even tried single stepping debug with a BDI, but even that fails. Once
I power on the board the booting stops with  COP status 5 . I do not get any
prints on the console
3) For some reason the Code Warrior tool from Freescale does not support the
NOR Flash type used on the board.

I get the following error on single stepping with BDI

Waiting for target stop failed
- TARGET: Break at boot vector failed, freeze forced

4) I have checked the HRESET word, it seems to be fine. Ihave also checked
BR0, OR0 and local access window settings.
5) mmd of the nor flash properly shows the HRESET settings.

Please help me on this.

Thanks
Sharath

   Can you send all what you see in the BDI telnet command line from
reset up until you program your flash. Include the result of info cmd
after your run prog as well.

   Where do you start single stepping from ? Does it ever break
properly after reset ?

   At which point are you checking those if your BDI never stops ?
Are you perhaps referring that your config file includes all the
correct settings, if so send that part of your config file as well.
