[Closed] at91sam9m10g45-sd appears to crash after bootstrap

[jmaxxz]

I have been trying to get a at91sam9m10g45ek equivalent board to boot linux from sd card. To do this I've built an image using yocto and the meta-atmel project. To do this I've created and built for the below machine conf (at91sam9m10g45ek-sd.conf). When I attempt to boot the resulting image the board gets stuck in a reboot loop with at91bootstrapper failing to hand over to uboot. I fear I maybe a bit out of my depth so any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I have been trying to get a at91sam9m10g45ek equivalent board to boot linux from sd card.

What exactly is an "equivalent board"?
Has this board ever booted from SDcard?

Regards

What exactly is an "equivalent board"?
It is a board with a at91sam9m10g45 which appears to have used the AT91SAM9G45-EKES as a reference design less the screen, ac97, and video out.

Has this board ever booted from SDcard?
I am told it has, but only Windows CE.

You haven't provided sufficient details (not even which release of Yocto) of what you're doing, so there can be no evaluation of where things went wrong.
I can however confirm that your at91sam9m10g45ek-sd.conf can produce AT91Bootstrap and U-Boot binaries that can boot an authentic AT91SAM9M10G45-EK.
