Hi all,

on my ICnova mx53 so dimm board I am currently bound to barebox version 2012.03.0-00162. There is no "global" and no "go" procedure, that help me in current barebox release.

Runing "bootm /mnt/barebox.bin"
where barebox.bin is the compiled 2013.05 or 2013.06 version does not work, output: "Unknown OS type"..

There is however the "bootsrc" variable, how can I find more variables? For example eth0 exists, and devinfo eth0 gives me network configuration

I wanted to somehow "chainload" one barebox into the other. How can I achieve that? Flashing is currently no option, I have too little experience with openocd.

Greetings,

Adam

Looking at the datasheet there is pin 8 connected with BOOT_MODE[0|1]. This maybe allows you to use USB update mode. Try pulling this pin up. Try connecting the USB OTG port to a PC, powercycle the board and do a lsusb. DO you see something with 'Freescale' in the list?
