Hi all,
I have a beaglebone and I would like to debug u-boot on it, in ccs5. as I know BB has in-built jtag,
I can connect the board through Texas Instruments XDS100v2 USB Emulator in ccs5 for debug purpose!!
Well, I followed this link to set the target configuration>>>

http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/AM335X_StarterWare_Environment_Setup#Debugging_on_BeagleBone_board_using_CCSv5

as in the link I set the configuration then I did “launch the selected configuration”, then in debug window,
right click on cortexA8 to say “connect target”, I got this>>

I would take a look at http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/U-boot_Debug_in_CCSv5 and the link it has to http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/OMAP_and_Sitara_CCS_support for an AM335x GEL file. It’s been a long while since I used this all together, but I updated the first link there with instructions for handling relocation in U-Boot, on my Beaglebone White, and nothing too important should have changed since then for debugging BBB.
