AM3352-SOM Latest u-boot (MLO) issue

[bruceuk]

Hi

Anybody managed to build and use the latest uboot for am3352-som? I think my issue is with the resulting MLO not loading.

After using "dd" to write MLO and u-boot.img to the sdcard, insert and power on I get nothing, absolutely zero.

After trying various things I thought I would try using the olimex MLO together with my version (2015.04-rc5) of u-boot......then I can boot, so the issue is definitely something with my resulting MLO.

Builroot build options:
BR2_TARGET_UBOOT=y
BR2_TARGET_UBOOT_BOARDNAME="am335x_evm"
BR2_TARGET_UBOOT_FORMAT_BIN=y
BR2_TARGET_UBOOT_FORMAT_IMG=y
BR2_TARGET_UBOOT_SPL=y
BR2_TARGET_UBOOT_SPL_NAME="MLO"




Here the MLO from olimex uboot (2013.10) loads and outputs to screen
U-Boot SPL 2013.10 (Apr 22 2015 - 07:40:06)
get_dpll_ddr_params
set_mux_conf_regs
--DEBUG-- Configuring i2c1 pinmux
--DEBUG-- Configuring mii1 pinmux
--DEBUG-- Configuring mmc0 pinmux
--DEBUG-- Configuring mmc1 pinmux
sdram_init
am33xx_spl_board_init
spl_board_init end



The MLO then loads the latest u-boot:

Perhaps an issue with "u-boot-2015-04" .... the previous version works as expected:
