Assuming you're using mainline U-Boot and can rule out "vendor problems", if you can access the SYSBOOT pins, set it up for a mode that does NAND and UART. If you never see the 'CCC' on console (or only see it the first time if you do UART then NAND), then you are starting SPL and dying in there. If you just see a stream of C then your file is not written to NAND correctly. -- Tom -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
