18:42 _rd Hi
18:42 _rd In u-boot ext4load mmc 0:2 0x02000000 /uImage does not return on my i4p
18:43 _rd ext4ls mmc 0:2 returns the correct content and includes /uImage
18:43 rabeeh _rd: that's probably because you are loading to the chip registers instead of memory
18:43 rabeeh try 'ext4load mmc 0:2 0x10800000 /uImage'
18:44 rabeeh that will load to address 8MB of the memory
18:45 _rd thanks, let me try
18:45 _rd BTW, I have the loadaddr from: http://www.solid-run.com/mw/index.php?title=UBoot
18:46 _rd Cool, that looks much better:
18:46 _rd CuBox-i U-Boot > ext4load mmc 0:2 0x10800000 /uImage
18:46 _rd 30989980 bytes read in 743 ms (39.8 MiB/s)
18:46 _rd CuBox-i U-Boot > bootm 0x10800000
18:46 _rd ## Booting kernel from Legacy Image at 10800000 ...
18:46 _rd Image Name: Linux-3.0.35-03026-ge69cc3a
18:47 _rd Hmm....now it seems I am stuck at "Starting kernel ..."
18:54 rabeeh _rd: that's the wiki for the older CuBox
18:54 rabeeh not CuBox-i
18:54 _rd ah, I see.
19:12 _rd CuBox-i U-Boot > setenv bootargs root=/dev/mmcblk0p2 rootfstype=ext4 ro rootwait console=ttymxc0,115200
19:12 _rd CuBox-i U-Boot > ext4load mmc 0:2 0x10800000 /uImage

19:12 _rd Image Name: Linux-3.0.35-03026-ge69cc3a
19:12 _rd Image Type: ARM Linux Kernel Image (uncompressed)
19:12 _rd Data Size: 30989916 Bytes = 29.6 MiB
19:12 _rd Load Address: 10008000
19:12 _rd Entry Point: 10008000
19:12 _rd Verifying Checksum ... OK
19:12 _rd Loading Kernel Image ... OK
19:12 _rd Starting kernel ...
19:13 _rd Shouldn't I expect that the kernel give some messages, even if the file system is emtpy (beyond the kernel)?
19:13 _rd (I bootstrapped Debian, so it is not empty ;-)
19:22 bencoh _rd: I'd say yes if you're on serial
19:22 bencoh (console=ttymxc0,115200)
19:23 bencoh not if you're reading the hdmi output
19:25 _rd yes, I am on serial
22:42 _rd Can anybody tell, if cubox-i can boot the stock debian armmp 3.15-rc5 kernel
22:43 _rd It comes with initrd
23:49 rabeeh _rd: without proper device tree it won't boot
23:50 rabeeh look at the forums; there were some reports on 3.15 kernels
