DHT-Walnut Jtag Bootloader Installation

Recovering a bricked DHT Walnut board
Using OCD Commander, a JTAG adapter, and GPSFan's ram resident ppcboot, it is possible to reprogram the flash. In short, use OCD Commander to turn on the sdram, download the ram targeted ppcboot, and install a new bootloader.

You'll need a macro file recovery_config.mac and the ppcboot image [Media:ppcboot_ram.s19 ppcboot_ram.s19].

There's also an experimental ram-resident version of u-boot-1.1.4 [Media:u-boot-ram.s19 u-boot-ram.s19] that can be downloaded to 0x400000. Source diffs against the current version from CVS, incorporating the patches from both GPSFan and dfarnsworth: [Media:u-boot-ram.patch u-boot-ram.patch]. Expect to see much more output at boot, as this version has debug output turned on. (Other changes include setting the entry point in the linker script, output files renamed to u-boot.s19 and u-boot.elf, sdram config disabled, added debug info on code relocation, and a modified default environment.)


 * Start OCD Commander, connect to the board, reset, and halt.

>reset
 * The CPU should be ready to fetch the first instruction:

 * Configure the system:

 * Download the ppcboot image to ram:

>down

>go 0x400100
 * Jump to the startup (which isn't the same as the download address):

At this point, you should have a running ppcboot v1.1.6. Install a new flash resident bootloader using the bootloader update procedure [wiki:DHT-WalnutInstallingTheUpdatedBootloader Installing the Updated Bootloader]
