NAND Flash

Added by Marcin Grzelak over 4 years ago

Hello,
I have a board based on MityDSP-L138 with 4 Gb NAND Flash (MT29F4G08ABADAWP). And I use MityDSP-L138 u-boot (U-Boot 2009.11). But I probably have problem with ECC calculation. After some time during booting I get message:

Verifying Checksum ... Bad Data CRC

ERROR: can't get kernel image!

Do you have any ideas what exactly is wrong?

Please attach a complete boot log. And the output of 'printenv'

Could you provide all the information on the barcode located on the module? Serial number, model number, etc.

It looks like you have a custom version of the UBL and u-boot.

Some oddities are that your clocks are non standard. U-boot is complaining about missing the NOR. And we don't recommend booting u-boot and kernel from the nand. They should be stored in the NOR.
See our architecture page.

I'm also confused how you managed to load the UBL from nand. This is not a boot mode we support.

We also don't recommend using the 2.6 kernel for new designs.

RE: NAND Flash - Added by Marcin Grzelak over 4 years ago

This is not SOM. But our module, similar to the MityDSP-L138 only with one memory (NAND) and we use the U-Boot 2009.11.

I am looking for information about what may be the cause of wrong ECC calculation. Can I path this u-boot or use a different version?

Thank you for your advice.

Marcin,

If you are using a Critical Link product in your design we are happy to help in this forum. From your comments, it looks like you are not using a Critical Link product. Our U-Boot is customized for our specific SOM. I would not recommend it for a different design.

TI's Processor SDK would be a better starting point <http://www.ti.com/tool/PROCESSOR-SDK-OMAPL138> .

If you have questions about a custom design based on the OMAP-L138, you should direct your questions to TI's e2e forum <https://e2e.ti.com/> .

Thanks,

-Bob

OK, I will try with TI's Processor SDK.
Thank you for your time.
Best regards
