NAND boot

Building U-boot
--------------
To build the u-boot for BSC9131RDB:
1. NAND Flash with sysclk 66MHz(J16 on RDB closed, default)
	make BSC9131RDB_NAND
2. NAND Flash with sysclk 100MHz(J16 on RDB open)
	make BSC9131RDB_NAND_SYSCLK100
3. SPI Flash with sysclk 66MHz(J16 on RDB closed, default)
	make BSC9131RDB_SPIFLASH
4. SPI Flash with sysclk 100MHz(J16 on RDB open)
	make BSC9131RDB_SPIFLASH_SYSCLK100

Memory map

DDR Memory map
---------------
 0x0000_0000	0x36FF_FFFF	Memory passed onto Linux
 0x3700_0000	0x37FF_FFFF	PowerPC-DSP shared control area
 0x3800_0000	0x4FFF_FFFF	DSP Private area

 Out of 880M, passed onto Linux, 1hugetlb page of 256M is reserved for
 data communcation between PowerPC and DSP core.
 Rest is PowerPC private area.

Flashing Images
---------------
To place a new u-boot image in the NAND flash and then boot
with that new image temporarily, use this:
	tftp 1000000 u-boot-nand.bin
	nand erase 0 100000
	nand write 1000000 0 100000
	reset

Using the Device Tree Source File
---------------------------------
To create the DTB (Device Tree Binary) image file,
use a command similar to this:

	dtc -b 0 -f -I dts -O dtb bsc9131rdb.dts > bsc9131rdb.dtb

Likely, that .dts file will come from here;

	linux-2.6/arch/powerpc/boot/dts/bsc9131rdb.dts

Booting Linux
-------------
Place a linux uImage in the TFTP disk area.

	tftp 1000000 uImage
	tftp 2000000 rootfs.ext2.gz.uboot
	tftp c00000 bsc9131rdb.dtb
	bootm 1000000 2000000 c00000
