OMAPL137 EVM booting issue after flashing

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: OMAP-L137

Hi,

I am using the OMAPL137 EVM, and i got some how erased the flash.

I used the flashing steps as given in site  "http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/Serial_Boot_and_Flash_Loading_Utility_for_OMAP-L137" .

I am using the linux for flashing and the steps i follow are first i erase and then i flash using the command flash_dsp and give all the three input files.

the format i follow is  

"mono ./sfh_OMAP-L137.exe <Command> [-targetType <Target>] [-flashType <FlashType>] [<Options>] [<InputFiles>]"

target type will be "OMAPL_v1" and flashtype will be "SPI_MEM" and in options i am setting the baud rate as 230400.

But after flashing i am not getting any thing on the minicom after making the BOOT pin adjustments.

I am taking care of the BOOT pin each time i flash and boot.

and if the BOOT pin is in the UART2 BOOT mode then it shows "BOOTME" prompt only once, is this causes any problem? Does the BOOTME prompt becoming continuously?

i took the dsp_ubl.bin, arm_ubl.bin, u-boot.bin from the folder in the PSP installation package.

Flashing is going on fine but when i reboot the board i am not getting any thingon the console.

Please if some one can help me out of this problem.

  • It looks like  the wiki was still pointing to the old version of the utility. It has been changed now, so please try and download the latest release 2_20 from SourceForge: http://sourceforge.net/projects/dvflashutils/files/OMAP-L137/ .

    Let me know if you have issues with this one. Thanks

  • hi Jeff,

    I tried using the latest release 2_20 but when i go for flashing i get :==

    #  mono ./sfh_OMAP-L137.exe  -erase

    WARNING: The runtime version supported by this application is unavailable.
    Using default runtime: v1.1.4322

    ** (sfh_OMAP-L137.exe:5764): WARNING **: The class System.IO.Ports.SerialPort could not be loaded, used in System, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089

    I cant understand this error..

    What is this error or Warning. I tried using the release version  2_14  giving the same error. ie;

     

    WARNING: The runtime version supported by this application is unavailable.
    Using default runtime: v1.1.4322

    ** (./sfh_OMAP-L137.exe:6312): WARNING **: The class System.IO.Ports.SerialPort could not be loaded, used in System, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089

    I am not getting this Warning.  If you can suggest  me some thing that i can try.
