Re: [Gumstix-users] Warning when connecting using Kermit

[Ash C. <as...@gu...>]

Hi vywodapink,

A couple things:
1) The 'no eeprom' message is just a new addition to u-boot where
u-boot looks for a i2c-connected eeprom to determine what daughter
board is connected. This should cause no problem for you.

2) Try getting rid of the 'Bad CRC' error by booting into u-boot.
Using 'setenv <varname> <varvalue>' to set up any variables necessary
('printenv' shows you the current variables) and then doing a saveenv
to store the variable set to flash with a good CRC.  Notably, ensure
you are setting the 'defaultdisplay' variable if you are trying to use
a screen.

3) The message about a missing boot.scr comes because you don't have a
boot.scr on your microSD; this is typically a script allowing users to
set up various aspects of u-boot but is certainly not required (see
here for more details:
http://www.gumstix.net/wiki/index.php?title=U-Boot)

The issues with the wireless and ethernet are probably not related to
these errors in U-boot.
