Check the avnet tutorial on microblaze development. They have a step by step method to implement a bootloader. Ofcourse it is for their Spartan 6 micro board. But it should be enough to give you the general idea.

thanks, i readed "Using Serial Flash on the Xilinx Spartan-3E Starter Board" of avnet.  

bootloader file run ok via spi flash config. but I have'nt any things from user_app.

No this was not the document i was talking about. Do the following :

1) Create an account on the avnet website and login

2) Go to http://www.em.avnet.com/en-us/design/drc/Pages/Xilinx-Spartan-6-FPGA-LX9-MicroBoard.aspx

3) Click on download design and support files

4) Download the 13.2 version of EDK06 :

https://www.em.avnet.com/Support%20And%20Downloads/EDK06-MicroBlaze_SPI_Bootloader_13_2_1.zip

You might have to read the previous tutorials of avnet i.e. from EDK01 to understand the EDK06. But i dont think that is of any use to you in a direct relation to your project. It should be enough to give you a broad prospective of how it works.

I have made it as simple as possible. Hope it helps
