The u-boot.sb file can be directly written to SPI NOR from U-boot prompt.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Load u-boot.sb into RAM, this can be done in several ways and one way is to use
|
||||||
|
tftp:
|
||||||
|
=> tftp u-boot.sb 0x42000000
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Probe the SPI NOR flash:
|
||||||
|
=> sf probe
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
(SPI NOR should be succesfully detected in this step)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Erase the blocks where U-boot binary will be written to:
|
||||||
|
=> sf erase 0x0 0x80000
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Write u-boot.sb to SPI NOR:
|
||||||
|
=> sf write 0x42000000 0 0x80000
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Power off the board and set the boot mode DIP switches to boot from the SPI NOR
|
||||||
|
according to MX28 manual section 12.2.1 (Table 12-2)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Last step is to power up the board and U-boot should start from SPI NOR.
