[sp] Thanks for the pointer. I will take a look at it. I am still surprised why the problem doesn't show up on beagle and overo which share the same lds. > > > but > > > > Looking for more pointers! > > Specifically, a "big" generic change that somehow didn't > touch the omap3evm; but did touch others. > > ....will start looking at the git-log immediately after this mail. > > > > ~sanjeev > > Look up the u-boot.lds files. Are they shared? [sp] Before sending the previous mail. I compared the u-boot.lds generated for omap3_evm and omap3_beagle and they are identical! > > Amicalement, > -- > Albert. > _______________________________________________ U-Boot mailing list U-Boot@lists.denx.de http://lists.denx.de/mailman/listinfo/u-boot
