IMX53 QSB: ERROR: can't get kernel image!

Swamy — Mon, 31 Oct 2011 13:04:53 GMT

Hello,

I have built uboot, kernel and rootfs using LTIB for IMX53 QSB. I am using kernel 2.6.35. I am getting error as cannot get kernel image.

Please suggest.

My built kernel under /ltib/rootfs/boot is 3184904 bytes, but the u-boot command show 3184840 bytes....Is something wrong here?

I used following commands to flash u-boot and uImage respectively (It is a 8GB microsdcard)

$sudo dd if=u-boot.bin of=/dev/sdb bs=512 && sync && sync

$sudo dd if=uImage of=/dev/sdb bs=512 seek=2048 && sync && sync

MMC read: dev # 0, block # 2048, count 6144 partition # 0 ...
6144 blocks read: OK

The load address might need your attention

You might check that initailly

O.K... Now that you are using i.MX53 the load address needs to be fine.. sorry..

Just try to set your environment variables as that given in the Users manual.

That worked for me ..... Just give a try..
