u-boot bootloader on custom board with V4FX60

oschuppe · ‎12-11-2008

Hi all!

I'm using a custom board with a basic system: PPC, EMC for the external SRAM, some LEDs via the GPIO - that's it (for now). No flash, no ACE controller and unfortunately no UART.
I'd like to run the u-boot bootloader on the system. I think, I managed to configure uboot so that it fits to my board.

The question is: how do I combine the u-boot bootloader on one side and the Xilinx software suite (esp. the platform studio SDK) on the other side?!
I know how to combine an ELF file with a bitstream, but I'd like to compile the u-boot using the SDK. And - more important - I'd like to use the SDK debugger!

Unfortunately, I didn't find any appropriate info, so if someone can point me to some documentation?! Any hints? Did anyone do something similar?

Thanks in advance for your help!
