[U-Boot-Users] Trouble with Make Command

[Rugunda, Solo]

Thanks Jerry and Nathan

So I built the image by running the Make with the correct cross compiler
from the uboot prompt. 

The file produced is u-boot.bin.gz

Now, How do I put this image onto my board and in the right location?


Thanks


Solo

Hi Solo,

Run make in your top level directory, "u-boot-1.1.4", not in the tools 
subdirectory.

By the way, the prompt "#" indicates you are running make as root.  You 
should not need to.  Running as root for anything that doesn't need root

access (essentially everything but host configuration) is a poor 
practice and discouraged.

HTH,
