Hi ,
I just recieved a Wi-i.MX53 JumpStart kit , all was going well until
I used the command
update_flash uImage 3
and the kernel crashes now.
How do I recover from this sitution ?
the uImage was built from the directory
/usr/local/DigiEL-5.9/kernel/linux-2.6.35
with the following sequence of commands
cp arch/arm/configs/imx5_ccmx53js_defconfig .config
make ARCH=arm menuconfig
and saved
then
make uImage ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=/usr/local/DigiEL-5.9/x-tools …
it built the uImage successfully

If uboot is still working you may be able to boot linux image over tftp from an image stored on you host machine. You also need nfs file system build on the host in order for the linux image to boot. So if image is in the correct place on the host you can then boot it like this:
dboot linux tftp
You shouldnt be using command line build for DEL .
Digi provides Digi ESP which will do this for you.
Create a new kernel/rootfs project and update onto module.
As your kernel is crashing you can interrupt boot process at uboot and update flash from uboot.
