[microblaze-uclinux] fsboot problem

[Orlando Landrove Gámez <landrove@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello, if anyone have seen this kind of problem......

I compiled successfully my images, the problem is when I want to boot on my 
Spartan3E Starter board.

-The problem is on the reference Xilinx Spartan3E_10.1_lite. But I really 
don't know what happen, 'cos everything seems to be alright.

-I have last EDK SP3 installed, on ubuntu 9. My EDK works very good, (I have 
tested on my own embedded project...)

-I open my Xilinx Spartan3E_10.1_lite reference system.xmp, then EDK asks me 
to upgrade the project, then I choose NO.

-I make netlist, libraries, bitstring, the .elf and lik, I build my "fsboot" 
software project with "MARK INIT_BRAM", the rest software projects have not 
selected "MARK BRAM". I download bitstring to the Board...

-I have tested my serial cable, I have tested my CPU  serial port with a 
router, so it works good.

-I have tested with windows hyperterminal and linux minicom, configuring it 
on " 8 bit data, parity even, no hardware or software error detection, 1 
stop bit, and 115200 bit speed.

-Because this is my first job on petalinux, maybe I have 'nt take care about 
some kind of stuff, that is why I'm describing all this.

-Reviewing some Petaliniux tutorial and docs, everybody tells when I 
download the bitstring by my jtag usb cable into the Board, some "fsboot 
...." words appears on the serial console, then I have to put "s" to call 
U-boot, and cat /tftboot/u-boot.srec > /dev/ttyS0 (this is my serial port).

-Well, when I download the jtag bit string, no word appears on my serial 
console. I do'nt know if I have to put some command on the console, or just 
wait for a text. I want to say, that I know it is my first job, so my 
project is basic, taken from the given reference, not modification at all...

-I put command cat /tftboot/u-boot.srec > /dev/ttyS0, I noticed that is 
takes a while, regarding that I put /tftboot/u-boot.srec > /dev/ttyS1 too (I 
do not use ttyS1), and it goes quikly, so it would say that something is 
happening on my serial ttyS0. But no word appears on my hyperterminal or on 
my minicom...

-When I download the bitstring, I do know it is programed with soemthing, 
because I have the board always with some LED on, to test if the board have 
programmed with the bitstring, the LED turn off..

-I really dont know, my images are wating for being dowloading, the problem 
is with my fsboot. (I do know the sources and headers are OK for fsboot 
software project)

-Note that I use the UART serial DTE port on my board for my own VHDL 
application, so it works good too....

-Please, maybe you have some skill that you tell me, why I have not the 
fsboot words asking me to boot, if I choose the basic reference....

-Help me please if you have on idea. of what it is happening to me.

Thaks and sorry for being so long, just I wanted to be clear, to save 
time...

Regards orlando.
