Hi Allyson,

And we will need a lot more detail before we can help...

- Are you running 'mainline' U-Boot (versus some custom version)
- What does 'don't work' mean - Does it compile? If so, is there any
output when you try to boot the board
- If you are using 'mainline' U-Boot with no other patches, you
should try using 'git bisect' to find out when things stopped working

Please have a look at:

Hi Allyson,

A) Please keep the mailing list Cc'd - I don't know much about ARM and nothing about the at91rm9200 - I'm just trying to be helpful :)

B) Please don't top-post

OK, so what you are saying is u-boot-1.1.6 from git.denx.de without any additional modifications works fine, but U-Boot 2011.03 from git.denx.de without any additional patches does not?

If this is the case, then you are likely going to get some pretty good support from the ML as that would mean there is a regression in mainline code that needs to be fixed...

Are you familiar with 'git' at all?

git has a very useful tool called 'git bisect' which basically asks for the ID of a known 'Good commit' (in this case u-boot-1.1.6) and a known 'Bad Commit' (2011.3). It will then find the commit halfway between and check it out - You then compile and test and tell git if that commit was 'Good' or 'Bad'

This process will repeat until you find the commit that caused the breakage
- Post that commit ID to the mailing list and somebody should get around to looking at it

Your welcome,

Regards,

Graeme
