tftpboot DIP switch?

[alouizied]

Hi,

I have a Qoriq T2080-RDB board, i would like to boot a standalone "hello world" program from a tftpserver with Uboot. In the datasheet of the Qoriq T2080-RDB  they mention that we have to configured the DIP switch if we want to boot from the NAND flash, NOR flash, SPI Flash or SD card. Do we have to configure the DIP switch if we want to boot from the Tftpserver? If yes what is the configuration?

Regards

Thanks for your reply ufedor and Adrian-Mihai Stoica.

tftp will allow you to load an application from a tftp server (this server is usually on a PC) to memory (DDR/SDRAM). From there, you can copy the application to any flash devices (NOR, NAND, SPI, SD). So, there are no DIP switches for tftpboot, just a way to load application from external PC to target board and run it using uboot commands.

There is no such DIP switch option.

It is required to use U-Boot 'tftp' command after booting from any possible source: NAND flash, NOR flash, SPI Flash or SD card.
