[U-Boot-Users] U-Boot 1.1.3 does not boot with MPC8349E

[Florian Behrens]

I didn't change the flash address but rather the text segment start address from 0xFE700000 to 0xFE000000 in board/mpc8349ads/config.mk (see also my message from 2005-10-11 08:25).

I used the commands as described in the README:

tftp 10000 u-boot.bin
protect off fe000000 fe09ffff
erase fe000000 fe09ffff
cp.b 10000 fe000000 a0000

Servus,
Florian.
