EMAC Boot via Tftp32 / u-boot.bin

Holger Eberhard102906

We use DVR RDK 03.00.00.00 / DM8168 / Udworks platform
I try to use EMAC Boot to Flash Uboot.
I followed the instructions in DVR RDK V3.0 Installation Guide.
After setup Tftp32 I was looking for u-boot.bin in the
pre_build_binary folder (I also searched in the other versions > 1.9 of DVR DRK).
But this binary "u-boot.bin" seems only to be in version 02.80.0.10.
I used this bootfile but without success. I can not boot via Tftp32.
Is it possible to get or to compile this bootfile ?

to use emac boot, you need to use u-boot.bin without header

the u-boot.bin under pre-built folder is with header and can't be used for emac boot

when you compile the uboot, it will generate u-boot.noxip.bin(without header) and u-boot.bin(with header)

u-boot.bin is for emac boot, and u-boot.noxip.bin is for burn in flash...
