I gave the following set of commands for

Flashing by TFTP on U-Boot (AS PER Users_Guide_IPNC_DM36x)

sudo su

minicom

 

setenv serverip '192.168.120.173'

setenv ipaddr '192.168.120.168'

setenv ethaddr '00:0C:13:A5:DE:D1'

setenv gatewayip '192.168.120.1'

setenv netmask '255.255.255.0'

setenv dnsip '10.1.11.50'

setenv dnsip2 '10.1.11.57'

 

setenv bootcmd 'nboot 0x80700000 0 0x200000;bootm 0x80700000'

setenv bootargs 'mem=48M console=ttyS0,115200n8 root=/dev/mtdblock3 rootfstype=squashfs ip=off eth=00:0C:13:A5:DE:D1 lpj=741376 cmemk.phys_start="0x83000000" cmemk.phys_end="0x88000000" cmemk.phys_start_1="0x00001000" cmemk.phys_end_1="0x00008000" cmemk.pools_1="1x28672" cmemk.allowOverlap="1"'

 

saveenv

 

tftpboot 0x80700000 uImage_ipnc_dm365_3.0.0

tftpboot 0x82000000 ipnc_dm365_3.0.0.squashfs

 

nand erase 0x200000 0x400000

nand write 0x80700000 0x200000 0x400000

nand erase 0x600000 0x1000000

nand write 0x82000000 0x600000 0x1000000

 

Reset

 Press Enter and login as root. Kernel prompt will be available.

KINDLY REPLY ASAP. WHERE TO LOOK FOR ERROR. DO BOOTCMD, BOOTARGS NEED TO BE MODIFIED

    Hi,

    Looks like the image being copied is corrupted somewhere in nand. What you can you

    try out is do  tftp 0x80700000 and than bootm 0x80700000 so that nand read write dont come into picture.

    Once if this successfully loads the linux, you can try out with nand.

    Thx,

    Hello Prabhakar,

    Thanks for your reply. Im working with saurabh (who posted this query).

    I did tftp transfer and then nand write commands.. n then reset command on promt.. It works fine for the first time.. But when I switch off the system and switch it on again it gives bad CRC error.. It seems that either its not writing on NAND or not writing on correct location.

    This is sequence i followed:-

    To set bootargs used this =

    $setenv bootcmd 'nboot 0x80700000 0 0x200000;bootm 0x80700000'
    $setenv bootargs 'mem=48M console=ttyS0,115200n8 root=/dev/mtdblock3 rootfstype=squashfs ip=off eth=00:0C:13:A5:DE:D1 lpj=741376 cmemk.phys_start="0x83000000" cmemk.phys_end="0x88000000" cmemk.phys_start_1="0x00001000" cmemk.phys_end_1="0x00008000" cmemk.pools_1="1x28672" cmemk.allowOverlap="1"'
    $saveenv

    And then for tftp
     
    $tftpboot 0x80700000 uImage_ipnc_dm365_3.0.0
    $tftpboot 0x82000000 ipnc_dm365_3.0.0.squashfs

    $nand erase 0x200000 0x400000
    $nand write 0x80700000 0x200000 0x400000
    $nand erase 0x600000 0x1300000
    $nand write 0x82000000 0x600000 0x1300000
    $reset

    Size of uImage is 2597 KB and size of squashfs is 12712 KB

    Hi,

    Instead of nboot command can you give nand read and then bootm, And see weather

    the same issue occurs.

    Thx,

    Please set "setenv verify no" in bootargs, this sill remove verification during bootup to save time

    This is mentioend in the USERS GUIDE

    Thanks !!

    It worked for me .

    But would like to know what verification it stops.. User guide says "Diasble verification in ENV variables using following commands"

    I mean how it started working after I used this fix?

    Regrads
