Hi all,
I’m using CC9m2443 board, but accidentally I deleted U Boot from the board. Now when I turn on the board nothing shown on the serial terminal. How can I overcome this situation by writing back the U boot.?
I’m having J Tag, and I’m using Windows XP / Ubuntu 10.04 LTS.
pls help me…

Hi, Make sure that S4.3 switch on.
Follow the steps,
Turn off the development board.
Connect the power cable.
Connect the JTAG adapter to the MULTI-ICE connector X13/JTAG on the development board.
Connect the JTAG adapter to your PC via the supplied USB cable.
Launch a terminal program (e.g. HyperTerminal) with 38400 8-N-1 no flow control.
Plug the cable into Serial Port A of the Digi development board.
To allow the JTAG to write to RAM the dip switches S4 on the Digi Development board must be set:
Set S4.3(OCD) to ‘On’ (toward the edge of the development board ,Set all others to ‘Off’
Next Power on the module.
Run the ccw9m2443js.bat file from the C:\Program Files (x86)\SEGGER\JLinkARM_V422g’ directory for your module.
Erase the U-Boot section of flash with:
nand erase 0x0 0xc0000
Then write U-Boot to flash with:
nand write 0x33e00000 0x0 0xc0000
Power down the device
Unplug the JTAG
Set S4.3 to off

hi,
I got some clue… when I use my custom UBoot, then only it shows this error…
let me have a check for more clarity…

sorry friends,
I think i made a mistake by loading my custom bootloader into the board without making changes in NVRAM. (during this time we should not use savenv till all the upgrade finishes)
now I’'m able to load my custom Uboot and Kernel…
thank you for your help and comments…
