Post the complete text and your u-Boot environment.

Typically, this message is because the kernel cannot locate a root filesystem to boot from. Do you have your rootfs environment variable set?

Hi Mike.

After manipulations in accord https://support.criticallink.com/redmine/projects/arm9-platforms/wiki/Programming_the_FPGA my board it is not loaded at all.
It is impossible to be connected to her with CCS. On Industrial IO Development Kit blinks a green LED on Ethernet connector.
Whether it is possible to correct a situation?

Thanks,
Oleh

Does this help?

Reprogramming a Dead Board

Unfortunately, does not help. The message of the utility is following:

Please reset or power-cycle the board and try again...

You should not need to do that if you are getting past u-Boot and trying to boot the kernel.

If you are getting any boot text (getting to u-Boot) can you please do the following and capture the text from the console and post it:

1. Power up the unit.
2. break into uboot and type "printenv"
3. run "boot"

Could you verify that the BOOTME message is sent by the l138 when you power it while holding the boot button? The output above seems to indicate it timed out waiting for the BOOTME message.

Also are you using a usb to serial converter? We have found that some of them don't work well with the sfh flasher program. If you have a computer with a built in serial or another usb to serial converter, that might be worth trying if you are seeing the BOOTME message.

Without the serial converter it works.
The board has come to life!

Thank !!!
