Re: [Gumstix-users] OCD/JTAG problems

[Craig H. <cr...@hu...>]

The bus error thing generally happens in my experience when RAM is not 
initialized yet -- that is, the PXA doesn't think there's any RAM to 
talk to, and you then try to load your SREC (or write a word) to some 
address that's not mapped by the CPU, leading to the bus error 
exception.  Try editing the macro script to write a word to some RAM 
address like 0xA2000000 or something instead of doing the SREC download 
at the end of the script -- if the write word to a RAM address works, 
then it might be some odd problem with the SREC (though your procedure 
for generating the SREC looks OK).  If it's not working, then 
something's going wrong with the RAM initialization code when we poke 
the controller earlier in the macro script.
