Hi Wolfgang,
Some of the things that I have tried and would like to share with you.
1. I read doc/README.standalone and it does mention default load addr and
start addr
of standalone application for various architecture.
[Snippet]
4. The default load and start addresses of the applications are as
follows:
Load address Start address
x86 0x00040000 0x00040000
PowerPC 0x00040000 0x00040004
ARM 0x0c100000 0x0c100000
MIPS 0x80200000 0x80200000
Blackfin 0x00001000 0x00001000
[end of snippet]
2. as mine is ARM, I know that only file I am interested in is
examples/standalone/hello_world
why? because its in ARM ELF format.
vi...@gladiator:~/World/u-boot$ file examples/standalone/hello_world
examples/standalone/hello_world: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, ARM, version 1
(SYSV), statically linked, not stripped
3. Now that I know the load addr, start addr and right hello_world file to
use, I did the following
EDB9302> tftp 0x0c100000 /tftpboot/hello_world
Using ep93xx_eth-0 device
TFTP from server 192.168.15.6; our IP address is 192.168.15.15
Filename '/tftpboot/hello_world'.
Load address: 0xc100000
Loading: ########
done
Bytes transferred = 37756 (937c hex)
EDB9302> go 0x0c100000
4. Result. I still see a panic. I am not sure what part I am missing. I was
wondering if you could provide
your kind guidance.
Regards,
Vipul.
