Copying U-boot on NAND Flash

Hi.

Sorry, I cant speak/write English very well.

So, please understand.

 

I have been testing the board, ti c6a816x/am389x evm.

I want to flash u-boot onto NAND(for NAND boot).

How do I copy the boot loaders(u-boot) in NAND flash? How to copy boot loaders(u-boot) to NAND flash? (anyware...)

 

I find the guide : Flashing U-Boot using CCS, p3, <TI816x U-Boot EA3>

-- You could flash u-boot onto NAND(for NAND boot) or to NOR(NOR boot).

-- Refer to Flashing to NAND Flash using CCS wiki page for instructions on how to flash the pre-built U-Boot binary

-- (or the recompiled one) with the help of the NAND flash writer.

 

But, I cant find that wiki page.

PLEASE HELP ME

 

  • Thanks for your reply.

    I had already read that, but I cant understand.
