Hello Stefano and thank you for the quick reply. To be honest, i'm not even sure what is the relocation you are talking about... What comes as a natural reply in my mind is: this is an old board , too. once the code was ported it must have been working, no? with or without CFI / ARM relocation. so it feels odd that I doesn't start. Besides, i'm not into any major project, so i'm not entirely sure i need to have a latest version of u-boot.
i'm fine by re-porting it. only i know fairly little about booting systems. is there a guide for porting u-boot? or any sort of help I can use from somewhere? somewhere to start from that is. thank you, nass On Fri, Dec 2, 2011 at 7:30 PM, Stefano Babic <sba...@denx.de> wrote: > On 02/12/2011 17:40, Athanasios Silis wrote: > > Hello everyone, > > I'm looking for a version of u-boot that can boot in the Embest > sbc2410-II > > board. > > I now the code for the specific board was not maintained and was removed > > from the u-boot-arm tree. > > but i did download > > this< > http://git.denx.de/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=u-boot/u-boot-arm.git;a=commit;h=32cb2c70c46c2be977215eb33aea049add647c09 > >commit, > > that claimed to add support for the board. > > Sorry, but it cannot work.
