[U-Boot] [PATCH 2/2] at91sam9261ek: make operational again

Remy Bohmer linux at bohmer.net
Thu Jan 27 23:46:18 CET 2011


Since U-boot v2010.12 the at91sam9261ek board is broken.
This is solved and tested on this board.

Note: It requires that the 1st stage bootloader (like Atmel at91-bootstrap)
to load U-boot at a different address compared to previous releases of
U-boot due to conflicts in the BSS area during relocation.
(0x23f00000 -> -0x23e00000)

Derived from a patch of: Alexander Stein <alexander.stein at systec-electronic.com>
