UBOOT的移植其实并没有想象中的难，这主要归功于众多的工程师已经将常见的平台代码写入了UBOOT，我们所要做的就是一点小小的更改，在网上看了很多相关的移植，也听到有人说其实看了UBOOT的readme就可以了，只可惜全是英文的，实在是下不定决心。现在终于硬着头皮读了起来，一读才发现，原来网上所谓的移植过程其实全是照readme来搞的，readme已经把UBOOT的结构，配置选项，以及移植过程都做了详细的说明，只要照着搞，很容易把UBOOT移植到一个和先前平台相识的平台上来。
本人不才，翻译了一部分，若有错误还请雅正！
我下的版本是Uboot1.3.4
uboot的相关文档和下载方法在
http://www.denx.de这是官方网站哦 呵呵
开始是介绍Uboot的发展，下载地址，如何获得帮助，以及版本说明

1.3版本的UBOOT还增加了一个API的文件夹，
这里放的是一些扩展应用的独立的API函数
第一步：
Selection of Processor Architecture and Board Type:
选择处理器架构和板类型：
---------------------------------------------------
For all supported boards there are ready-to-use default
configurations available; just type "make <board_name>_config".
对所有已至此的板都已经有可用的默认配置，只要执行：
make <boare_name>_config
下面是例子
Example: For a TQM823L module type:
cd u-boot
make TQM823L_config
For the Cogent platform, you need to specify the CPU type as well;
e.g. "make cogent_mpc8xx_config". And also configure the cogent
directory according to the instructions in cogent/README.
对于加强型平台还要指定CPU类型，请阅读cogent/READM
····················
第二步
Configuration Options:
配置选项：
----------------------
Configuration depends on the combination of board and CPU type; all
such information is kept in a configuration file
配置依赖于板和CPU，所有配置设置信息保存在：
"include/configs/<board_name>.h".
Example: For a TQM823L module, all configuration settings are in
"include/configs/TQM823L.h".
Many of the options are named exactly as the corresponding Linux
kernel configuration options. The intention is to make it easier to
build a config tool - later.
The following options need to be configured:
以下的选项需要被配置：
这里MPC的配置比较多，如果是SMDK2410的话配置会少很多
- CPU Type: Define exactly one, e.g. CONFIG_MPC85XX.
CPU类型：正确地定义一个种类，比如：CONFIG_MPC85XX
- Board Type: Define exactly one, e.g. CONFIG_MPC8540ADS.
板类型：比如：CONFIG_MPC8540ADS
- CPU Daughterboard Type: (if CONFIG_ATSTK1000 is defined)
Define exactly one, e.g. CONFIG_ATSTK1002
CPU子类
- CPU Module Type: (if CONFIG_COGENT is defined)
Define exactly one of
CONFIG_CMA286_60_OLD
CPU模型
--- FIXME --- not tested yet:
CONFIG_CMA286_60, CONFIG_CMA286_21, CONFIG_CMA286_60P,
CONFIG_CMA287_23, CONFIG_CMA287_50
- Motherboard Type: (if CONFIG_COGENT is defined)
Define exactly one of
CONFIG_CMA101, CONFIG_CMA102
主板
- Motherboard I/O Modules: (if CONFIG_COGENT is defined)
Define one or more of
CONFIG_CMA302
·······
第二步
Building the Software:
编译软件
======================
Building U-Boot has been tested in several native build environments
and in many different cross environments. Of course we cannot support
all possibly existing versions of cross development tools in all
(potentially obsolete) versions. In case of tool chain problems we
recommend to use the ELDK (see http://www.denx.de/wiki/DULG/ELDK)
which is extensively used to build and test U-Boot.
UBOOT已经在很多编译环境下编译成功，但我们不保证所有的交叉编译工具都能使用，如果发生问题，请用ELDK编译工具编译和测试UBOOT
http://www.denx.de/wiki/DULG/ELDK
If the system board that you have is not listed, then you will need
to port U-Boot to your hardware platform.
若你的系统板没有列出来，那你将移植UBOOT到你的硬件平台上
To do this, follow these steps:
遵照一下步骤进行移植：
1. Add a new configuration option for your board to the toplevel
"Makefile" and to the "MAKEALL" script, using the existing
entries as examples.
依照已存在的入口在顶层"Makefile" 和 "MAKEALL"脚本中
增加你板子的配置选项
Note that here and at many other places
boards and other names are listed in alphabetical sort order. Please
keep this order.
板和其他名字都是按字母排序的，请遵照这种顺序
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".
创建一个新的目录来保存你板子的代码，增加你需要的文件。
在你的目录里至少需要"Makefile" 、"<board>.c"、 "flash.c"、"u-boot.lds"
3. Create a new configuration file "include/configs/<board>.h" for
your board
为你的板子创建一个新的配置文件"include/configs/<board>.h"
3. 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.
若你移植UBOOT到一个新的CPU，你还需建立一个新的目录
来保存你CPU的代码，和文件
4. Run "make <board>_config" with your new name.
用你的新名运行"make <board>_config"，
5. Type "make", and you should get a working "u-boot.srec" file
to be installed on your target system.
得到映像文件
6. Debug and solve any problems that might arise.
[Of course, this last step is much harder than it sounds.]
