Problems to Boot Custom Board iMX233

[ssosgar]

I developed a custom board with IMX233 without battery with RAM - MT46V32M16P-5B XIT:J and Openwrt as operating system

My problem is the openwrt boot on Olimex Maxi MX233 from SD when I put my SD in my custom board the only output lines are:

U-BOOT 2017.01 (MAR 30 2017 – 17:48:18)
CPU: Freescale i.MX23 rev 1.4 AT 454 MHZ
Boot: SSP SD/MCC#0
DRAM: 64MiB
MMC:   MXS MMC: 0
*** Warning – bad CRC, USING DEFAULT ENVIROMENT
IN:    serial
OUT:   serial
ERR:   serial
NET:   net initialization skip
Not Ethernet found
Hit any key to stop autoboot: 3
Hit any key to stop autoboot: 0
=>

"Why the boot process is stopped?

I appreciate any advice related to generate a u-boot image in SD card

Thanks

Incompatible RAM?  Or broken? Badly routed? Badly soldered?  Etc.

a) Is this reproducable, ie. always exactly the same output hanging at exactly the same line?
b) What happens if you enter something at the u-boot prompt?

I found someone with the same problem in the following link

http://www.starterkit.ru/html/index.php?name=forum&op=view&id=9628&num=1

I download sd/image to test memory

contain the simple test of sdram and some initialization for evk boards in the bootloader

and my output looks fine but my problem is How can I generate a Linux SD Image

Since u-boot is starting, your SD-card seems fine (assuming, that u-boot sits on the sd-card of course). I don't know why u-boot is starting linux ... maybe no boot script is present? I think you will have to investigate this on the u-boot prompt. (Type help for a start.)

HTH,
