Since about 10 hours i'm trying to get u-boot working on my new mini2440 (128M) board. First i tried to compile the sources from the czech repo (or.cz), but this failed, u-boot told me something about a wrong image format. Now i'm trying to get the precompiled u-boot for the 128M board from friendlyarm working. ( http://www.friendlyarm.net/dl.php?file=u-boot-128M.zip ) On my sd-card there is my kernel image (zImage) and the root_qtopia_128M root image. I issue the following commands: vivi: load ram 0x31000000 242332 u go 0x31000000 u-boot: nand scrub nand create nand write 0x31000000 u-boot <switch the nand/nor switch back to nand> reset dynenv set 40000 nand erase kernel mmcinit fatload mmc 0:1 0x31000000 uImage nand write 0x31000000 kernel setenv bootcmd nboot.e kernel \; bootm saveenv until this point everything went fine. Now i do a reset and this happens: ** unknown image type Wrong image format for bootm command ERROR: can't get kernel image I've googled a lot and tried a lot, but i can't get rid of this error, i hope anyone of you can help me :)
[mini2440] u-boot won't load kernel from nand
With u-boot I was also not getting anything working. So finally I put vboot.bin, zImage_T35.bin (kernel) and root_qtopia128MB.img from DVD I received with the board. I would prefer trying all these things from memory instead of keep writing in NAND. Will write and give you a nice doc if I will get any sucess with u-boot and kernel loading.
Are you aware of the issue with using buserror's u-boot without a modification first? Search his blog for the procedure. And previous u-boot threads on this site.
