Address of last loaded file. If not set in a load
operation, it must be specified.
-l
Number
Length of flash area to occupy. If specified, and
the named image already exists, the length must match
the value in the FIS directory.
Length of area reserved in FIS directory if the
image already exists, or the length of the last loaded
file. If neither are set, it must be specified.
-f
Number
Address of flash area to occopy.
The address of an area reserved in the FIS
directory for extant images. Otherwise the first free block
which is large enough will be used.
-e
Number
Entry address for an executable image, used by
the fis load command.
The entry address of last loaded file.
-r
Number
Address where the image should be relocated to by
the fis load command. This is only
relevant for images that will be loaded with the
fis load command.
The load address of the last loaded file.
-s
Number
Actual length of data written to image. This is
used to control the range over which the checksum is
made.
It defaults to the length of the last loaded
file.
-n
When set, no image data will be written to the
flash. Only the FIS directory will be updated.
name
String
Name of flash image.
Description
This command creates an image in the FIS directory. The data for the
image must exist in RAM memory before the copy. Typically, you would use the
RedBoot load command to load file into
RAM and then the fis create command to write
it to a flash image.
Examples
Trying to create an extant image, will require the action
to be verified.
RedBoot> fis create RedBoot -f 0xa0000000 -b 0x8c400000 -l 0x20000
An image named ‘RedBoot’ exists - continue (y/n)? n
Create a new test image, let the command find a suitable place.
RedBoot> fis create junk -b 0x8c400000 -l 0x20000
