Hello,

I want to boot PowerPC Linux 2.6.19 on my Icecube board but I didn't
succeed yet to get lite5200.dts compiled and an appropriate image  
created:

   $ dtc -b0 lite5200.dts
   DTC: dts->dts  on file "lite5200.dts"
   ERROR: Missing /chosen node
   Input tree has errors

What is the procedure to make and boot an uImage for the U-Boot
bootloader. I read about the third argument for bootm but did not
understand how to use it.
How have you booted in the past?  Do you tftp down the images or run  
from flash?

Here's an example assuming you have a kernel image at address  
$loadaddr and the dtb at $ftaddr

dtc -b0 -Idts -Odtb -V16 lite5200.dts > lite5200.dtb

download lite5200.dtb to the system

=> bootm $loadaddr - $fdtaddr
