PSP[edit]

Some say this acronym stands for "peripheral support package" others (older sources?) say its "platform support package". There might have been a shift of its meaning in the past. Who knows? --Alexander.stohr 06:27, 23 October 2008 (MDT)

Regarding "Why is u-boot trying to tftp my uImage from the wrong server address when executing 'dhcp'?" the solution above was not appropriate for my situation. Instead. I avoided using dhcp by using tftpboot instead. To do this, I had to manually set env vars for ipaddr and loadaddr above and beyond those recommended above.

To rephrase, instead of typing

 setenv serverip <serverip>
 setenv loadfile <loadfile>
 dhcp

repower fresh and type these commands

 setenv serverip <serverip>
 setenv loadfile <loadfile>
 setenv ipaddr <evm's ipaddr>
 setenv loadaddr 0x80700000
 tftpboot

Note I got <evm's ipaddr> and 0x80700000 from the router by noticing what got printed out when I *did* run the dhcp command.

Note my situation stems from "Downloading kernel image to the EVM" at http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/Writing_Kernel_Image_to_NAND_Flash#Downloading_the_Kernel_Image_to_the_DVEVM
