First, please observe the following: 1. Start a new thread for comments/questions unrelated to the existing thread. 2. Always post the u-boot mailing list as well. 3. Please make your lines wrap at less than 80 characters. To give a brief answer to your issue: Please study sections 8 and 13 of the 9G20 datasheet. As a result you will see that the ROM will try to load "boot.bin" to internal SRAM. This will limit the image size to 16K. Apparently that cannot be u-boot itself. This 16k code would need to initialize SDRAM and load another, larger file (e.g. u-boot.bin) from SD/MMC into SDRAM. I don't know whether AT91Bootstrap sources already handle such a situation. Latest Versions you will find on the Atmel Website. Please note that this is not an u-boot issue. The patch "SD/MMC support" for u-boot enables to access SD/MMC from u-boot ONCE it is running.
