Dear all,
I am facing problem in booting a kernel image that has been flashed from linux 
prompt.

I have created 4 flash partitions.
At the linux prompt, I used "flash_eraseall /dev/mtd2" to erase the flash 
partition.
Then I used "nandwrite -p /dev/mtd2 uImage_v2" to flash the kernel image.
>From the output of "nanddump /dev/mtd2" I can see a valid magic number in the 
>first 4 bytes.

Next when I try to boot from 0xA0000 (maps to /dev/mtd2 partition) I get the 
following error:
(Partition sizes: mtd0 --> 0x80000, mtd1 --> 0x20000)

DM6467 EVM # nand read.i 80700000 a0000 200000

            NAND read: device 0 offset 0xa0000, size 0x200000

            reading NAND page at offset 0xa0000 failed
             2097152 bytes read: ERROR

What could the problem be?

One difference that I noticed between the "nanddump" done at linux prompt and 
"nand dump" done at u-boot prompt is in the OOB bytes.
Could this be a potential problem?

Thank you,
Vinod
