Hi, I tested beagle image from factory (but this problem should occur on all other boards) and it does not boot at all, with this message: ************************************************************ U-Boot SPL 2013.04 (May 28 2013 - 14:13:22) OMAP SD/MMC: 0 spl: error reading image u-boot.bin, err - -1 ### ERROR ### Please RESET the board ### ************************************************************ First problem is in BOOT partition, all available files are under a boot/ folder and nothing at the root of the partition. Then u-boot starts but I get this error: ******************************************************************************** U-Boot SPL 2013.04 (May 28 2013 - 14:13:22) OMAP SD/MMC: 0 U-Boot 2013.04 (May 28 2013 - 14:13:22) OMAP3630/3730-GP ES1.1, CPU-OPP2, L3-165MHz, Max CPU Clock 1 Ghz OMAP3 Beagle board + LPDDR/NAND I2C: ready DRAM: 512 MiB NAND: 0 MiB MMC: OMAP SD/MMC: 0 *** Warning - readenv() failed, using default environment In: serial Out: serial Err: serial Beagle xM Rev A No EEPROM on expansion board Die ID #5e3c00011ff00000015739eb0a01c005 musb-hdrc: ConfigData=0xde (UTMI-8, dyn FIFOs, bulk combine, bulk split, HB-ISO Rx, HB-ISO Tx, SoftConn) musb-hdrc: MHDRC RTL version 1.800 musb-hdrc: setup fifo_mode 4 musb-hdrc: 28/31 max ep, 16384/16384 memory USB Peripheral mode controller at 480ab000 using PIO, IRQ 0 Net: usb_ether Hit any key to stop autoboot: 0 mmc0 is current device gpio: pin 173 (gpio 173) value is 0 gpio: pin 4 (gpio 4) value is 0 SD/MMC found on device 0 ** File not found uEnv.txt ** 1576 bytes read in 5 ms (307.6 KiB/s) Running bootscript from mmc0 ... ## Executing script at 80200000 kerneladdr=0x80200000 ramdiskaddr=0x81000000 mmc0 is current device 4338904 bytes read in 385 ms (10.7 MiB/s) 65842548 bytes read in 5656 ms (11.1 MiB/s) Unknown command '1' - try 'help' Wrong Image Format for bootm command ERROR: can't get kernel image!

OMAP3 beagleboard.org # ******************************************************************************** I guess the "unknown command" problem comes from the u-boot script: ********** if itest 1${loadfdt} == 11; then setenv load_fdt 'ext2load ${bootdev} ${bootpart} ${fdt_addr} ${fdt}' else setenv load_fdt '1' fi ********** When u-boot want to run load_fdt for non device tree board, it tries to run 1. Which is wrong but should not be fatal. If (under uboot) I run: setenv boottype bootz and then: run doit the kernel starts but it crashed after 10/12 seconds. "file linux.vmx" returns: linux.vmx: Linux kernel ARM boot executable zImage (little-endian) Have we switched to zImage for all boards? at least the ones supported by default kernel? The kernel crash is maybe only a kernel problem and not related to the rest of this e-mail.
