[U-Boot-Users] Serial download, hangs in kermit receive

[Vidya S]

Hi,

   No, i am porting u-boot to BF533 processor. The one in blackfin.org is
for BF535. I am able to send and receive characters clearly. Thus i feel the
serial driver is ok.

  I tried to send the file using c-kermit. It says too many retries and
fails. I am attaching the statements below. What may be the problem?


  LGSI$ loadb 1000 57600

CMD: loadb 1000 57600
 444
## Ready for binary (kermit) download to 0x00001000 at 57600 bps...
After set_kerm_bin_mode
os_data_addr = 0x1000
Before ;; for loop calling

(Back at localhost.localdomain)
