Hi all,

I have a neo freerunner with Qt extended installed in it, I want to install android on SD card and boot the device from SD card.
I have got an android cupcake SD card image from http://code.google.com/android-on-freerunner/downloads/list and have unzipped the tar file in SD card and tried to boot Mobile from SD card but it shows the following error:

Unable to load "uImage.bin" from mmc 1:1
Wrong Image or format for bootm command
ERROR : Can't get Kernel Image

I am new to this field, can anybody please help me out with the suitable solution.

Any suggestion is appreciated

Thanks & Regards,
Sammy

Sam:
This is a Dockstar board.

I don't know if things have been changed lately. From my previous experience, you cannot restore the original firmware (as the re-flashing article describes) with Jeff's uboot, i.e., with the prompt: "Marvell>>". You need to restore the original uboot, i.e., with the prompt: "ce>>".
If someone know this is no longer true, I am interested to know also.
