Hi Jayasurya


Which version of u boot you are using at the moment?

Could you try out printing the env variable in the uboot and share it with us?

After printing the env variable take a look at the boot command, is it using bootm or booti.


If you are using a more recent version (using bootm) could you try loading the .itb format instead of a separate package.

The commands are as follows:

tftp ${loadaddr} <path to itb file>

bootm ${loadaddr} #board-${board_id}


The .itb files is created in the uboot build process.


Regards

Jingyang, Teh

Hi JingyangTeh,

Thanks for the reply,

I have followed the below path for generate the U-boot files.

Building Bootloader for Agilex 7 | Documentation | RocketBoards.org

U-Boot Version : "ver=U-Boot 2022.10-24691-gb1598f9fda-dirty (Aug 09 2023 - 10:17:35 +0530)socfpga_agilex"

In the default mmcboot, they have used the booti command for loading the kernel. Thats why I have used the same. Currently after the compilation of the uboot sources, I am executing this command (ln -s u-boot.itb u-boot.bin) to change the file type for loading QSPI flash.

Kindly do the needful for this issue. Thanks in advance.

Regards,

Jayasurya R.
