[mel-discuss] BeagleBoard-XM booting problem

[Scott A. Ikenaga]

Hi Govind:

You might check that uImage is actually the kernel image,
uImage-beagleboard.bin. Looking at the console output below,
it appears that uImage is not the kernel image file,
uImage-beagleboard.bin but the u-boot file, u-boot.img. You
can tell by looking at the "Image Name: U-Boot 2011.12-dirty for beagle"
It should actually be "Image Name:   Mentor Embedded Linux/3.0.17/bea".

Instead of autobooting, you can manually boot your board by doing:

OMAP3 beagleboard.org # mmc rescan
OMAP3 beagleboard.org # fatload mmc 0:1 0x80200000 uImage
reading uImage

3356360 bytes read
OMAP3 beagleboard.org # bootm 0x80200000
## Booting kernel from Legacy Image at 80200000 ...
    Image Name:   Mentor Embedded Linux/3.0.17/bea
    Image Type:   ARM Linux Kernel Image (uncompressed)
    Data Size:    3356296 Bytes = 3.2 MiB
    Load Address: 80008000
    Entry Point:  80008000
    Verifying Checksum ... OK
    Loading Kernel Image ... OK
OK

Starting kernel ...

Uncompressing Linux... done, booting the kernel.


Hope that helps...
