IMX6ULG0 kernel booting stuck

[yuvrajdodia]

Hi,

I am using custom imx6ul board.

I have 2 type of boards, 1 with MCIMX6ULG2 & 1 with MCIMX6ULG0 other than controller everything is same.

I am using linux-fslc-4.1-2.0.x-imx kernel.

kernel is working with MCIMX6ULG2 board and i am able to boot board.

same kernel is not working with MCIMX6ULG0 board.

After u-boot message kernel booting stuck at Starting kernel/booting the kernel.

If I change controller from IMX6ULG2 to IMX6ULG0, Is there anything i have to modify?

On same IMX6ULG0 board i am able to boot custom linux kernel compiled using

https://eewiki.net/display/linuxonarm/MCIMX6UL-EVK

So board/hardware is working fine.

Please help me to fix/modify linux-fslc-4.1-2.0.x-imx kernel for IMX6ULG0 controller.

Hi Yuri,

I am able to boot linux-fslc-4.1-2.0.x-imx kernel on my MCIMX6ULG0 board.

Initially i was using gcc-linaro-5.4.1-2017.01, I try with gcc-linaro-5.3.1-2016.05 and it start working.

I am not sure. What is changed between 2 compiler versions and how kernel booting issue is fixed.

FYI, exact part numbers are MCIMX6G2DVM05AA & MCIMX6G0DVM05AA

Thanks for you support.

Have a great day,

Yuvi

Hi Yuri,

Thanks for the quick reply.

I am using same u-boot. 

Only difference is kernel zImage, dtb files and modules.

One more thing FSLC linux is booting on IMX6ULG2 board. Same kernel(sdcard) stuck on IMX6ULG0 board.

Can you suggest me what exactly i have to check for memory initialization in u-boot for IMX6ULG2 & IMX6ULG0.

Thanks,

Yuvi
