1. SATA usage in U-Boot
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	There are two ways to operate the hard disk
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	* Read/write raw blocks from/to SATA hard disk
 | 
						|
	* ext2load to read a file from ext2 file system
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
1.0 How to read the SATA hard disk's information?
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	=> sata info
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
SATA device 0: Model: ST3320620AS Firm: 3.AAD Ser#:		4QF01ZTN
 | 
						|
	    Type: Hard Disk
 | 
						|
	    Supports 48-bit addressing
 | 
						|
	    Capacity: 305245.3 MB = 298.0 GB (625142448 x 512)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
1.1 How to raw write the kernel, file system, dtb to a SATA hard disk?
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	Notes: Hard disk sectors are normally 512 bytes, so
 | 
						|
		0x1000 sectors = 2 MBytes
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	write kernel
 | 
						|
	=> tftp 40000 /tftpboot/uImage.837x
 | 
						|
	=> sata write 40000 0 2000
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	write ramdisk
 | 
						|
	=> tftp 40000 /tftpboot/ramdisk.837x
 | 
						|
	=> sata write 40000 2000 8000
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	write dtb
 | 
						|
	=> tftp 40000 /tftpboot/mpc837xemds.dtb
 | 
						|
	=> sata write 40000 a000 1000
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
1.2 How to raw read the kernel, file system, dtb from a SATA hard disk?
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	load kernel
 | 
						|
	=> sata read 200000 0 2000
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	load ramdisk
 | 
						|
	=> sata read 1000000 2000 8000
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	load dtb
 | 
						|
	=> sata read 2000000 a000 1000
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	boot
 | 
						|
	=> bootm 200000 1000000 2000000
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
1.3 How to load an image from an ext2 file system in U-Boot?
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	U-Boot doesn't support writing to an ext2 file system, so the
 | 
						|
	files must be written by other means (e.g. linux).
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	=> ext2ls sata 0:1 /
 | 
						|
	<DIR>	    4096 .
 | 
						|
	<DIR>	    4096 ..
 | 
						|
	<DIR>	   16384 lost+found
