Hi Guys, I'm using ML507 development board which has virtex 5 FPGA and PPC440 hard block, In which PPC440 has the peripherals 1) DDR2 2) Flash Controller 3) Internal BRAM 4) Uart controller we are trying to store the u-boot code in the strata flash , and we are mapped the reset vector of PPC440 to strata flash. but the PPC440 is not at all booting up. in the chip scope pro we could tap the signal connected to flash memory, in which after FPGA is getting configured the PPC440 is driving the chipselect of strata flash and trying to read the u-boot data from flash memory , but the address it is jumping is not the reset vector (i.e reset vector addr for PPC440 is 0xFFFFFFC). how to fix this.... issue anyone who worked on this may be guide us in right way thanks in advance.
this board is known to have issues with uboot, I had the same troubles, then I switched to 405GP, which had issues with uboot & DMA & DDR In short: with these kind of boards you usually need a jtag and a lot of debugging activity because the support is … limited and error prone (due to the bad support and high complexity in open sources) p.s. the same happens with SandPoint, PPC74xx by FreeScale
