Hi, I'm trying to get the latest U-Boot 1.3.3 and Linux (any version) working on our custom board based on Walnut demo board. I have used U-Boot 1.0.0 and Linux 2.4.20 on our other similar board and that worked out well. However, a lot seems to have changed since then.
Since I'm using ELDK 4.1 now (used ELDK 2.1 for the old project), the old code does not compile properly. So, I'm trying to get the latest code to work with our new board and are having some issues. 1. U-Boot 1.3.3 works. But it does not boot the old Linux image or Linux 2.4.25 (latest 2.4?) compiled using ELDK 4.1 2. U-Boot 1.0.0 boots Linux 2.4.25 (latest 2.4?) compiled using ELDK 4.1. Then I found out that the kernel parameter passing has changed and I should use powerpc architecture instead of ppc. But Linux 2.4.25 does not have powerpc architecture. So, I'm now trying 2.6 kernel. Using linux-2.6-latest.tar.bz2 from ftp://ftp.denx.de/pub/linux/. However, the powerpc architecture does not have walnut.c for configuring the board. I need to customize it since our custom board does not have FPGA. What's the best way to build linux kernel that works on U-Boot 1.3.3? Thanks.
