However, the upstream BCT has the console set to UART too: http://nv-tegra.nvidia.com/gitweb/?p=tools/tegra-cbootimage-configs.git;a=blob;f=tegra20/toradex/colibri-t20/colibri-t20_256_v12_nand.bct.cfg > My next issue is with booting the kernel, so I appreciate if you can > also help me with it.

Especially nvflash uses its own partition layout which is not support by U-Boot directly. You need to set a matching partition layout using mtdparts yourself too. The U-Boot environment is at 2 MB, which is in the BCT configuration table downstream, you might want to alter that too if you plan to use nvflash. > Nonetheless, I have tried to boot the kernel with the bare > environment, but had no bigger luck.

The upstream kernel uses device tree, so you need to load the device tree binary too. Use $ make dtbs to compile them, you can find the dtb in the folder arch/arm/boot/dts/tegra20-iris-512.dtb. You need to load them too (from the U-Boot command prompt): usb start setenv ipaddr 192.168.10.90 setenv serverip 192.168.10.3 setenv bootfile uImage tftp ${kernel_addr_r} setenv bootfile tegra20-iris-512.dtb tftp ${fdt_addr_r} setenv bootargs "console=ttyS0,115200n8 earlyprintk root=/dev/sda1 rw rootdelay=5 ${mtdparts}" bootm ${kernel_addr_r} - ${fdt_addr_r} Just verified 3.12 on my setup, it works but I had to alter the sm2_reg microvoltage to 3800000 in the device tree file. -- Stefan _______________________________________________ U-Boot mailing list U-Boot@lists.denx.de http://lists.denx.de/mailman/listinfo/u-boot
