I want to check UART boot of DM816x.

I think it may need to do bootup sequence, but I can't find that detail. Where can I get detail?

And, is exist the boot host software for DM816x?

I checked URL below, but not exist.

Hello,

UART Boot Mode is not supported on the DM816x devices; please refer to the device Errata.

Sorry, I didn't inform you about the CPU version.

Hello,

Thank you for the version info, but this issue is not fixed in the PG2.0 devices either. If the host is not a PC, then you might be able to boot at a non-standard baud rate. Could you possibly use EMAC boot or a two stage boot with SPI flash?

I exclude the UART boot from our product.
