u-boot for fun (1) -- read RAEDME

1.Download u-boot at sourceforge. (u-boot-1.1.6)

 

2.read the file of the README, get the http://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/u-boot-users

 

3.copy from README

 

     If the system board that you have is not listed, then you will need
to port U-Boot to your hardware platform. To do this, follow these
steps:

1).  Add a new configuration option for your board to the toplevel
    "Makefile" and to the "MAKEALL" script, using the existing
    entries as examples. Note that here and at many other places
    boards and other names are listed in alphabetical sort order. Please
    keep this order.
2).  Create a new directory to hold your board specific code. Add any
    files you need. In your board directory, you will need at least
    the "Makefile", a "<board>.c", "flash.c" and "u-boot.lds".
3).  Create a new configuration file "include/configs/<board>.h" for
    your board

    If you're porting U-Boot to a new CPU, then also create a new
    directory to hold your CPU specific code. Add any files you need.
4).  Run "make <board>_config" with your new name.
5).  Type "make", and you should get a working "u-boot.srec" file
    to be installed on your target system.
6).  Debug and solve any problems that might arise.
    [Of course, this last step is much harder than it sounds.]
