u-boot version

[rjs]

Is the version of u-boot in the boards built from the public sources ?

I'm trying to boot a NetBSD kernel on my board but get an error that suggests that NetBSD bootm support isn't compiled in even though the symbol is defined in .

Yes those are the sources..this is the config file we use:

https://github.com/parallella/parallell ... rallella.h

Note that the u-boot on the current boards (and the source tree) is about 2 years old. We are currently working on updating a new boot image (with a new FSBL generated by Vivado and a new u-boot).

[rjs]

Would it be possible to enable CONFIG_BOOTM_NETBSD in the next official build of u-boot ?

It looks to be #undef-ed in include/configs/zynq_common.h and include/configs/zynq_cseflash.h

I have the same problem - but one more question: if I build my own u-boot.bin, is there some fallback/safe procedure to flash it without bricking my board?

Or if I should happen to brick it, is there a recovery procedure? Would I need a JTAG for that?

AFAIK you would need JTAG if you brick your board.

Not to resurrect a necro thread, but how can we go about getting NetBSD supported in the boot loader?

Assuming there are no conflicts, submit a pull request?

Ola has been working on a major u-boot update for a week now...he's getting close. He will post update on forum when ready.
(when the new infrastructure is up he will also update the netbsd)
