<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I'm trying to get u-boot to run on an ipengine
(mpc823 based device). BSE (company that makes the ipengine) told me to
use the binary generated from the RPXLite configuration. I tried this, it
didn't work, but I think I'm doing it wrong.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I'm building everything with the ELDK. I was
able to successfully build a zImage Linux kernel image (ELF), and I can get that
to run by placing it at memory location 0x200000 and then telling the ipengine
internal boot loader to jump to 0x210000. This bypasses the ELF header and
jumps into the code, and it works great. I was thinking that maybe I have
to do something like that for the u-boot image (also an ELF), but it didn't
work.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I was also successful using "ppc_8xx-objcopy -O
binary zImage zImage.bin" to create a kernel image that booted directly (I place
it at 0x200000 and have the internal bootloader jump directly to 0x200000), but
when I tried this with the RPXLite u-boot image, it also didn't
work.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>ELDK version is 3.1.1 (build 2005-06-07). U-boot
version is off the cvs source tree from last week. The kernel that
I built successfully was the linuxppc 2.4 also off the cvs source
tree from last week.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The other time I used u-boot (for an ml300 board)
it came up pretty easily. This time I'm just not seeing something, but
haven't figured out what yet.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Thanks for your time,</FONT></DIV>
