Got it. Rest of the part of this mail is to make my life simple :) @Pawell and others: Is there a way in vexpress bootmon to load images directly from uSD card instead of flash? I know we can stop flashing stuff to flash from uSD card by changing config.txt, but with that i need commands to load stuff from uSD card directly. This will save a lot of time during development. -- viresh _______________________________________________ linaro-dev mailing list linaro-dev@lists.linaro.org http://lists.linaro.org/mailman/listinfo/linaro-dev
