U-Boot-2013.04
From ArmadeusWiki
Status
- APF27: Huge network transfert (20MB and more) may hang FEC driver by timeout when U-Boot is compiled with GCC4.4.x
- workaround: use GCC 4.6.x
- APF28: Direct TFTP to NAND transfert may hang FEC driver by timeout when U-Boot is compiled with GCC4.4.x
- workaround: use GCC 4.6.x
- script flash_reset_env is not working anymore.
- in the mean time, please use this command: nand erase.part env; nand erase.part env2

bdinfo ... ethaddr = 00:1e:ac:... |
iim read fecmac FEC MAC address: 0x00:0x1e:0xac:... |
test the presence of the MAC address in EEPROM/fuses the command bdinfo should return a valid mac address |
| Default IP | the default IP variables should be: ipaddr=192.168.0.10 netmask=255.255.255.0 serverip=192.168.0.2 gatewayip=192.168.0.1 use the "flash_reset_env" script to restore the default environment variables | ||||
| DHCP | the command "DHCP" should be able to update IP environment variables according to your network and DHCP server | ||||
| Ping | set ipaddr & serverip according to your network. Test the connection to the server: ping ${serverip} should return the status "alive" | ||||
| Board reset | command "reset" shall reset the board | ||||
| TFTP | the command "run download_uboot" should UBoot from the host PC into the target RAM | ||||
| NFS | the command "nfs ${loadaddr} ${serverip}:/tftpboot/${board_name}-linux.bin" should download linux kernel from the host PC into the target RAM | ||||

| NFS boot (rootfs) | http://www.armadeus.com/wiki/index.php?title=Nfs#Boot_from_NFS the command "run nfsboot" should start linux using rootfs over a NFS shared drive on your host server ${serverip} | ||||
| rootfs on SD/MMC | http://www.armadeus.com/wiki/index.php?title=MultiMediaCard#Booting_from_MMC.2FSD the command "run mmcboot" should start linux using a rootfs on your sd/mmc memory card | ||||
| Flash lock/unlock | Not Applicable | For APF9328: protect on all erase nor0,1 -> - Warning: 1 protected sectors will not be erased! protect off all erase nor0,1 -> no warning - erase done other apf boards: nand lock; nand erase.part kernel Should not erase the kernel partion (error message, system hang or no message) boot linux | |||
