|
|
|

|
data communcation between PowerPC and DSP core.
|
|
|
|
|
Rest is PowerPC private area.

|
Flashing Images
|
|
|
|
|
---------------
|
|
|
|
|
To place a new U-Boot image in the NAND flash and then boot
|
|
|
|
|
with that new image temporarily, use this:
|
|
|
|
|
tftp 1000000 u-boot-nand.bin
|
|
|
|
|
nand erase 0 100000
|
|
|
|
|
nand write 1000000 0 100000
|
|
|
|
|
reset
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Using the Device Tree Source File
|
|
|
|
|
---------------------------------
|
|
|
|
|
To create the DTB (Device Tree Binary) image file,
|
|
|
|
|
use a command similar to this:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
dtc -b 0 -f -I dts -O dtb bsc9131rdb.dts > bsc9131rdb.dtb
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Likely, that .dts file will come from here;
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
linux-2.6/arch/powerpc/boot/dts/bsc9131rdb.dts
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Booting Linux
|
|
|
|
|
-------------
|
|
|
|
|
Place a linux uImage in the TFTP disk area.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
tftp 1000000 uImage
|
|
|
|
|
tftp 2000000 rootfs.ext2.gz.uboot
|
|
|
|
|
tftp c00000 bsc9131rdb.dtb
|
|
|
|
|
bootm 1000000 2000000 c00000
|
