[microblaze-uclinux] Spartan3E 1600E u-boot problem

[Giulio Mazzoleni <giulio.mazzoleni@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello everybody.

I need some help on getting started with the Xilinx Spartan3 XC3S1600E
evaluation board.

I'm using GNU/Linux and have no previous experience on the Xilinx
development environment, so please excuse my ignorance.

I tried following the guide posted to
http://developer.petalogix.com/wiki/BoardGuides/Xilinx/S3E1600/Tutorial
to no avail.

I'm using the petalinux-v0.30-rc1 distribution, EDK 9.2i updated to
latest service pack and configuration Xilinx-Spartan3E1600-RevA-edk92

During the process I encounter two different kind of problems:

1. I can succesfully complete steps:
  - make menuconfig
  - make

  - petalinux-prepare-hardware
  - make -f system.make bits
  - make -f system.make libs
  - make -f system.make program
  - make -f system.make init_bram

But after issuing petalinux-copy-autoconfig, compiling the
petalinux-dist with make complains about not being able to find the
definition of CONFIG_XILINX_BTN_DECODER_0_BASEADDR (and others like
this)

2. After issuing make -f system.make download and sending the file
u-boot.srec with kermit nothing happens, but the console screen remains
locked showing

FS-BOOT: Waiting for SREC image....
FS-BOOT: Image download successful.
FS-BOOT: Warning image location differ from default boot location. Image will not boot automatically after POR.
FS-BOOT: Press 'n' to boot old image.
FS-BOOT: Use new image.
FS-BOOT: Booting image...

I get the same behaviour by using the prebuilt hardware/reference-designs/pre-built/Xilinx-Spartan3E1600-RevA/images/u-boot-2.6.srec

I tried with different jumper settings for J30 to no avail.

Sorry for having given so few infos.

I would be very grateful if anybody could address me in the right direction.
Maybe by telling me how to run some test programs to see if everything is working correctly.

Many thanks.

Giulio Mazzoleni
