Dear all,

I am trying to boot into Linux by my TS7250 flash. The following is the command I used in RedBoot.

I am using vmlinux-7250-ts11.bin provided by ftp://ftp.embeddedarm.com/ts-arm-sbc/ts-7250-linux/binaries/ts-kernels/.

1. "fis init -f" to format the flash;
2. "load -r -b 0x00218000 -h 192.168.0.50 /vmlinux" to load the kernel from the default tftp server;
3. "fis creat vmlinux"
4. fis load vmlinux
5. exec -c "console=ttyAM0,115200 root=/dev/mtdblock1"

The error information is the following:
Searching for NAND flash...

I found a poster with a similar problem, tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/ts-7000/message/11786. Unfortunately, I did not search the solution from that poster. Could anyone please shed me some light on this problem. Thank you so much.

Best Regards,
