DM6467T BOOTME

I'm not sure if I understand you question.

If you are trying to do UART boot, then the EVM will send the BOOTME message for you to boot using UART. So that is what is suppose to happen. Can you explain your problem a little better?

hello,
I try to load u-boot image and the UBL to DM6467T EVM.
and I use this procedure:
slh_DM646x.exe -load2DDR u-boot.........bin -startAddr 0x80000000 -loadaddr
0x80000000 -p COM3

idem for ubl image.
at the end everything goes well for loading but after "load done" i receive a message BOOTME wich turn in loop in the console.
Then I log in hyperterminal to boot the EVM and i have a message BOOTME in the console.
I do not understand.
Thank you in advance
best regards

hello,

i also try this method, the flashing work well.

at the end, i have: Operation completed successfully

Flashing UBL and U-Boot to NAND using Serial Flasher

Alternately, both UBL and U-Boot can be flashed to NAND by using "Serial Flasher Utility" and use NAND Boot option as described below.

  1 Install .NET Framework 2.0 or later on Windows XP.
  2 Download sfh_DM646x.exe, davinciUBLais.bin and u-boot.bin to a local folder, let's say "C:\tmp".
  3 Open Command Prompt and change working directory to above directory.
  4 Set SW3 switch settings on DM6467T EVM to UART Boot Mode and connect the serial port of board to Windows Host (we assume 
    the board is connected to COM1). The SW3[4:1] positions for this mode are [ON OFF OFF OFF]. Refer EVM technical reference 
    for more details. 
  5 Type following command at command prompt:sfh_DM646x.exe -p COM1 -nandflash  -UBLStartAddr 0x20 davinciUBLais.bin u-boot.bin
note: here i replace UBLStartAddr by ubl_DM646x_nand.bin but i dont have the davinciUBLais.bin.
6 Following message should be displayed Waiting for the DM646x...
7 Now power on the board.
8 The Serial Flasher application should establish UART communication with EVM and download and flash UBL and U-Boot to NAND 
  flash.
9 Once done, power off the board and set SW3 setings to NAND Boot Mode. The SW3[4:1] positions for this mode are [OFF ON ON 
  ON].
10 Connect serial terminal client (e.g., TeraTerm) to COM1 and power on the board

but in the hyperterminal boot, i have against the message BOOTME.

I followed the steps and executed all orders

now with davinciUBLais.bin in the command line

sfh_DM646x.exe -p COM3 -nandflash  -UBLStartAddr 0x20 davinciUBLais.bin u-boot.bin

the flashing work well (operation completed successfully)

but I still get the message in hyperterminal BOOTME
Thank you for your help

Thierno,

you probably burned the flash correctly, have you changed the DIP switches (SW3) in the board  in order to go back to NAND boot? please see page 58 of the:

hello,

my flash boot work well,

I had reverse the switch.

thanks
