Hi to all,

I want to compile an u-boot from the official release: u-boot-2010.06-2010R1-RC2 for the BF548-EZKit board, and i want to set the boot mode to the parallel flash boot mode.

So,

in the config file: include/configs/bf548-ezkit.h I set:

#define CONFIG_BFIN_BOOT_MODE BFIN_BOOT_PARA

and i verify that falsh settings are correct:

#define CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_BASE 0x20000000

I verify that the LDR flags in config.mk is set to support PARA boot mode:

# Set some default LDR flags based on boot mode.

LDR_FLAGS-BFIN_BOOT_PARA := --dma 6

Finally i compile the u-boot source code for the BF548 ezkit board with make command:

$ make bf548-ezkit^C

And i load it to the board with two ways:

1. Via ethernet (upgrading the old u-boot)

2. Via VDSP with Flash programmer tool

but it is failed to be loaded, and it tells me that:

Error: Flash is not large enough to fill

284408 bytes starting from offset 0x3F00000.

any help please??

Are you getting this message when trying to flash the u-boot with VDSP? What's the situation like when upgrading with old u-boot? The error reads like you are specifying a wrong starting address. Follow this page to upgrade it with old u-boot docs.blackfin.uclinux.org/doku.php?id=bootloaders:u-boot:upgrading
