Hi,
 
Your u-boot parameters are truly 
broken.
 
You have a 'setenv=bootcmd nboot 80700000 0 a0000' 
which is nonsense. I think that should have been bootcmd=nboot 80700000 0 
a0000
 
The reason it does not boot is because you have set 
'bootcmd=bootm' As there is nothing in memory you get the bad magic 
number.
 
If you set the bootcmd to nboot 80700000 0 a0000, I 
think it should at least try to boot.
 
You then need to sort out the bootargs, as previously 
posted 'nfsroot=10.65M' is not right, it should be an IP address & path to 
the NFS root filesystem on your server. 
 
I guess this is either a cut'n'paste issue, or perhaps 
the terminal emulator is not wrapping long lines.
 
Also you cannot put u-boot variables into the bootargs 
variable, they do not get expanded and the kernel will not know how to handle 
$(nfsroot) and $(rootpath). There is a 'trick' to do this that has been used on 
the DM6446.....
 
bootcmd=setenv setboot setenv 
bootargs $(bootargs) video=dm64xxfb:output=$(videostd):format=component 
davinci-vpfe.device_type=1;run setboot;bootm 
0x2200000

All this did was allow the $(videostd) variable to be 
picked up at boot time - the 'run setboot' was the trick that caused bootargs 
to 
be reset with the expanded variables. 

I was going through this valuable trick , and was interested in getting the 
ethaddr env variable expanded so that I can get the MAC address in the driver.

I tried doing this after looking at the above example, just to check if the 
ethaddr gets expanded

1. set bootcmd setenv setboot setenv bootargs console=ttyS0,115200n8 ro 
noinitrd rw ip=dhcp eth=$(ethaddr) mem=100M;run setboot
## Error: "setboot" not defined

Can you please tell me, what went wrong here or what would be the correct way 
to achieve this?

regards

-Nitin

Hi  , 

After I tried to run one demo code on DM6467, I am not able to boot  up the  
DM6467.

###########################################################
DM6467  EVM # printenv
bootdelay=3
baudrate=115200
ipaddr=192.168.1.201
setenv=bootcmd  nboot 80700000 0 a0000
serverip=10.65.103.160
bootfile=uImage
nfshost=10.65.102.67
rootpath=/home/Ramesh/workdir6467/filesys
bootargs=console=ttyS0,115200n8  noinitrd rw ip=dhcp root=/dev/nfs 
nfsroot=10.65Mstdin=serial
stdout=serial
stderr=serial
ethaddr=00:0e:99:02:b3:47
bootcmd=bootm

 
DM6467  EVM # boot
## Booting image at 80700000 ...
Bad Magic Number
DM6467  EVM #  <INTERRUPT>

##########################################################
Board  envirmental setup is 


setenv nfshost 10.65.103.160
setenv rootpath  /home/Ramesh/workdir6467/filesys
setenv bootargs console=ttyS0,115200n8 noinitrd  rw ip=dhcp root=/dev/nfs 
nfsroot=$(nfshost):$(rootpath), nolock  
mem=120M#########################################################################

Please  give me some idea to recover the board. 

Thanks
Ramesh.


Check you bootargs, nfsroot parameter does not look correct.  
"nfsroot=10.65Mstdin=serial"
