I finally had a chance to play with u-boot 2011.06 on my SheevaPlug
and GuruPlug.
Here are the notes I took. I'll update my web site accordingly soon.
Do you have anything else to add?
- Version string: identify old (Marvell) version:
U-Boot 1.1.4 (Dec 27 2009 - 22:03:21) Marvell version: 3.4.27
New version:
U-Boot 2011.06 (Jul 03 2011 - 02:54:01)
Plus other info (device, compiler and binutils)
- The bubt command does not exist in Denx u-boot; don't use it.
- Use the .kwb file from the Debian package.
- The location of the u-boot environment has changed (to 0x60000).
- mmcinit was renamed to mmc init
- The correct machid is set automatically by u-boot. Exception:
the eSATA SheevaPlug which shares an image with the regular Sheevaplug.
On that device, do:
setenv machid a76
saveenv
GuruPlug notes:
- Which port is eth0? upper port
- SD/MMC is a USB device.
Anyway, 2011.06 is working well on my devices. Thanks to Clint and
others for getting plug support integrated upstream and a package into
Debian. I'm glad to finally be able to get rid of the Marvell version.
