Hi, I use BeagleBoard rev C4. I would like to prepare u-boot from source myself, one of the newest. I tried to build first X-Loader MLO file and then U-Boot 2012.07. But X-Loader didn't loaded u-boot.bin file. I tried many versions and it only worked with some old. Then after many hours I realized that all wiki, books and other tutorials are out of date, U-Boot creates MLO file. So I tried 2012.07 again and it works :). X-Loader(MLO) and U-Boot (img, not bin) were loaded from SD card ( there were other problems later because of missing kernel files... I suppose I need to reconfigure omap3_beagle.h file, true?). Ok, then I wanted to flash NAND and. I tried to do it like on many wiki pages and finally I have "Error: Bad compare! failed " when I run Beagle without SD card. Why? Is it because I should not flash *.img file ? It can be only *.bin file (I have never seen on any page flashing img) ? But X-loader want *.img file...
Other question is, do I need new U-Boot? What are the advantages of using that new version of software? If old loads kernel and then kernel rules and bootloaders are not important... Maybe old can not deal with new kernels?
