Hi,

On a MX31PDK the only boot media is NAND flash, so I was trying to get
rid of the
conditional setting of CONFIG_SYS_TEXT_BASE.

CONFIG_NAND_SPL is set in nand_spl/board/freescale/mx31pdk/Makefile.

,so I tried the following:


,but this causes the board not to boot.

Does anyone have any ideas as to why the patch above does not work?

Thanks,

Fabio Estevam

As far as I can see: it seems to me that the config.mk avoid that the
u-boot image overwrites the SPL code, making then impossible to boot.
Is it really copied into CONFIG_SYS_NAND_U_BOOT_DST ?

However, I see that CONFIG_SYS_TEXT_BASE_SPL is set in some boards, and
looks liketo be the correct mechanims to be used to set TEXT_BASE for
the SPL binary.

Best regards,

CONFIG_SYS_TEXT_BASE_SPL should be used for the SPL address.
