-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Your right, we do have M547x/M548xs, but I don't have a BDM module or a USB JTAG module, which means if I make a bad u-Boot, my board is as good as a brick, and I prefer my board non-bricked. Youpi has managed to get u-Boot running on his board, but has yet to successfully run to /bin/sh's execution. I've read some boards have the ability to change the location of the IPL execution point to the second part of the boot flash, but these boards don't seem the ability to do so. If I'm mistaken, please point me to the right jumper so I can work out the necessary memory map to generate patches for u-boot.
My method involves writing a root filesystem to the second flash chip, and then using that to boot from. dBUG doesn't support automatic booting, so this obviously is not ideal. In addition, the kernel can't execute from flash*, which means it has to be manually loaded into RAM. Also, I'm not specifying a proper MTD partition table thus its not possible to have an initrd, and initramfs just crashs the kernel hard. * - I'm told 2.6.28 may have this feature at long last If someone can point me to where I can buy a cheap BDM module, or a cheap JTAG USB flasher (and where on the mini-ITX I need to connect it), I can work out the proper partitioning and generate a nice binary package which can later be used as the basis of d-i.
