* Installing barebox for karo-tx53 @ 2013-05-07 12:33 Dr. Patrick Langfeld 2013-05-07 17:55 ` Sascha Hauer 0 siblings, 1 reply; 8+ messages in thread From: Dr. Patrick Langfeld @ 2013-05-07 12:33 UTC (permalink / raw) To: barebox Hi, I want to install barebox on a Karo TX53 module as a primary bootloader. Now I have a few questions: a) With wich version should I start. I found the branch karo-tx53 at git://github.com/gchiii/barebox-tx53.git Is this the right one (as it seems to be quit old with latest commit 9 month ago) Or should I start with the master branch at git://git.pengutronix.de/git/barebox.git ? b) Is there even a simpler way as I am using ptxdist? c) How can I flash barebox over u-boot, which is my current bootloader?

What boot sources does your board have? I think it has Nand, that's where U-Boot is. Are there other possibilities?

Is zbarebox.bin a compressed version of barebox.bin? Which one should I use for flashing the tx53 nand-flash? My boot sources are nand-flash (thats where u-boot is at the moment) (and SD-card for testing). I tried to flash zbarebox.bin to nand-flash. It started but with error nand: NAND type unknown, ec,f1 nand: No NAND device found (-19)! imx_nand imx_nand0: probe failed: No such device or address malloc space: 0x85f00000 -> 0x87efffff (size 32 MiB) Using environment in NAND Open /dev/env0 No such file or directory .. Does barebox already support the FirmwareConfigurationBlock? I heard from Mathias Fend that he manually had to add a FCB blob before the barebox binary when writing barebox to flash in an older barebox version.

For testing I would recommend the SD card. You can simply write the binary to the card: cat barebox-flash-image > /dev/sdx > > Does barebox already support the FirmwareConfigurationBlock?

However, when you start from SD card you should be able to use barebox_update to flash to the nand, given that it works of course...

It seems my tests for 4c2bdc8728016b3412523e3264651651fe752860 were wrong as all the board I'm using for my tests have ONFI flashes ... so I'll fit one with a non ONFI flash for the next time.
