The operating system kernel transplantation is the premise and foundation of the embedded system development. In view of the complexity and diversity of the U-boot transplantation, this paper analyzed the file structure and starting process of U-boot, it has chosen S3C2410 of SanSung company for development board, cross-compilation environment construction and U-boot transplantation and the kernel of the burning process were introduced in detail. We combined the function of U-boot with the characteristics of Linux in the transplantation process, this method has the characters of fast transplant, simple modify of kernel and strong commonality. Through compile testing, U-boot transplantation is implemented successful on the S3C2410, provides a reference for other U-boot transplantation.
