U-Boot releases for RIoTboard

Former Member
Former Member over 10 years ago

Hi! I'm currently trying to find a recent version of U-Boot for the RIoTboard. Indeed the one provided in the sources of Android on the Embest website (RIoTboard Development Platform) was released in August 2009 and it seems I'm missing some utilities (usb notably) I need to update U-Boot thanks to a USB stick. Any ideas?

    I did describe how to create your own U-Boot with the newest code here.

    Linux on the RIoTBoard Part 1: U-Boot

     

    And here in Step 8 how to flash it into a mounted image or directly onto flash.

    Linux on the RIoTBoard Part 5: SDCard Image

     

    Unfortunately I lost all the files on my Server and didn´t have time to correct the Blog Posts, so the linked files aren´t available anymore.
    But you should be able to create your own U-Boot with that info there.

    That's for sure very useful. I'll follow your instructions and try to build a newer version of U-Boot. I'm using Android, any modifications I should be aware of?

    Only thing I can think of that is different with Android is on how to load the kernel. I´m not sure how to do that for Android.

    Maybe you can find something about that from the code from the old U-Boot for Android.

    I'd also be interested in moving to a modern U-boot. Please let us know if you find how to make it work.

    I´d look into that, but I don´t have a RioTBoard anymore.

     

    Well I still have one but it´s in use. The project´s done and I can´t use it for testing.

     

    I can help when there are problems, but as said only limited to theoretical stuff.
