AW: imx53 internal boot from NAND

[Matthias Fend]

Hi,

For a quick start you can use the provided FCB (fcb.bin).
This FCB was generated with the attached tool (fcbgen.c) - note that the bad block handling is disabled.

Then you can "merge" your barebox image with the FCB with something like:
cat fcb.bin barebox-image > barebox-fcb.bin

This works at least on our custom i.MX53 hardware.

Betreff: imx53 internal boot from NAND

Hello, 

I tried to use barebox in order to boot from NAND. 

The ROM loader needs a FCB (Firmware Configuration Block) table at the beginning of the flash (according to chapter 7.5.2.2 of the reference manual). 
I looked at the existing imx53 boards within the barebox sources but I founx that no one used this mode there. 

Has someone done this or can give me some advice?
