Hi Fabio,

Thank you very much for your support, I'm getting closer.

OK, here what I did:

--- a/boards.cfg
+++ b/boards.cfg

-mx35pdk                      arm         arm1136     -                   freescale      mx35
+mx35pdk                     arm         arm1136     mx35pdk   freescale      mx35        mx35pdk:IMX_CONFIG=board/freescale/mx35pdk/imximage.cfg

--- a/include/configs/mx35pdk.h
+++ b/include/configs/mx35pdk.h

-#define CONFIG_SYS_TEXT_BASE   0xA0000000
+#define CONFIG_SYS_TEXT_BASE   0x87800000

+++ b/board/freescale/mx35pdk/imximage.cfg

init_sdram_start:
        /*init_sdram*/
-       setup_sdram
+  /* setup_sdram */

And here the result (output on the serial line):

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
U-Boot 2012.04.01-00077-g48bcd18-dirty (Jul 09 2012 - 15:22:31)

CPU:   Freescale i.MX35 rev 2.1 at 532 MHz.
Reset cause: POR
I2C:   ready
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

And that's it, no more output after "I2C:   ready".  Perhaps you have some more hints about what to do?

With best regards
