creating u-boot.bin

Question

Hello, 
 I am using custom board of ADSP SC-587. 
 I have u-boot.ldr file . I want to build it as u-boot.bin. 
 How can I do it. 
 Thanks in advance.

Hi GBiswal, 
 as far as I know, the processor can boot from LDR files only. So the very first application you save at offset 0 of SPI flash must be of LDR file format. The BootRom will parse it, load into given memory (this info is stored in LDR file headers) and boot from there. So you can not simply boot from u-boot.bin file. Why do you need that? 
 P.S.: I am not from ADI, so my information may not be 100% correct.)
