Booting problem with omap5

Hi,

I am trying to run Linux on the board using an sd card.

When I boot the board I get the following ( and no more output after 'Starting kernel').

U-Boot SPL 2013.01-gdc6238c (Mar 27 2013 - 14:33:47)
OMAP5432 ES2.0

    Hello,

    Which GLSDK are you using?

    There is a limitation of OMAP5 GLSDKs, that says: OMAPS00305059: Omap5 is not getting booted if the ethernet cable is not connected (see http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/OMAP5_GLSDK_6.03.00.01_Release_Notes)

    Have you followed the GLSDK software developers guide (http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/OMAP5_GLSDK_Software_Developers_Guide), when building your MLO, u-boot & kernel?

    Best Regards,

    Yordan

    Hello Yordan,

    I am using the GLSDK 6.00.00.07. I connected the ethernet cable but it didn't fix the problem.

    I followed the virtual open systems guide http://www.virtualopensystems.com/en/solutions/guides/kvm-svirt-omap5/.

    I used precompiled kernel image and dtb file.

    Thanks.

    Hi,

    A couple of suggestions bellow:

    1. This could be a problem with the power supply of the board; it should be DC12V as suggested in the quick start guide: http://downloads.ti.com/dsps/dsps_public_sw/glsdk/6_01_00_01/exports/OMAP5_ES_2_0_Quick_Start_Guide.pdf 

    I personally work with DC5V 2.0A power supply on my board.

    2. I am not familiar with the virtual open system guide... Please make sure you follow the instructions in GLSDK software developers guide: http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/OMAP5_GLSDK_Software_Developers_Guide#Starting_your_software_development

    And use the prebuilt images from the board-support/prebuilt-images/ folder.

    3. Just for a test you can try some of the later versions of GLSDK: http://downloads.ti.com/dsps/dsps_public_sw/glsdk/6_01_00_01/index_FDS.html , although I've tested GLSDK6_00 on my board so it should work.

    Best Regards,

    Yordan
