Barebox
Barebox uses the same build (Kbuild) and configuration (Kconfig) tools as the Linux kernel.
1) First you need to clone the tree
git clone git://git.pengutronix.de/git/barebox.git
Most probably you want to use a released Barebox version, by running 'git checkout <version>'. Check which versions are available with 'git tag -l' and use the latest one.
2) Then you need to configure it:
make mini2440_defconfig
3) Compile it
make
4) Now you need to flash the nand for this you can use OpenOCD http://www.hycshop.com/mini2440-c-1_7/
Advanced
you can use framebuffer to display a splash screen

OpenOCD
now you need so start OpenOCD. For this you need to specify the interface (First) and then the board
for this I just a Jlink
openocd -f interface/jlink.cfg -f target/samsung_s3c2440.cfg -c "adapter_khz 12000"
Flashing barebox And then the following steps:
- connect a terminal application to the mini2440's serial connector
- connect the mini2440 to a working network
- switch S2 to boot from NOR to boot into 'supervivi'
- switch on your mini2440
- run the OpenOCD daemon configured with the file shown above
- connect to the OpenOCD daemon via 'telnet'.
- run the following commands to download a barebox into your target
> halt > load_image \<path to the 'barebox.bin'\> 0x31000000 bin > resume 0x31000000
Now a barebox is starting from an already initialized CPU and SDRAM (done by 'supervivi').
Change to your terminal console and configure the network first. Adapt the following settings to your network:
eth0.ipaddr=192.168.1.240 eth0.netmask=255.255.255.0 eth0.gateway=192.168.23.2 eth0.serverip=192.168.1.7
A 'ping' to your TFTP server should bring a "...is alive" message now.
We are ready now to program a barebox into the NAND flash:
erase /dev/nand0.barebox.bb tftp barebox.bin /dev/nand0.barebox.bb
