[U-Boot] Help starting u-boot on an at91sam9260ek

[Ansell, John]

Hi Fabio,

I believe the at91 U-Boot that Atmel publish has some patches applied. I
don't know offhand what they were but it would be worth checking that
these have made it into the current builds.

http://www.at91.com/project-community/article/2-Projects/218-at91-u-boot
-bootloader.html refers.


Out of interest, have you had any problems with 2010q1 compiler? Atmel
told me a while back they only advise the use of 2007q1. I found that
later compilers gave problems, though I can't remember what they were
now. 

Cheers
John
