That would be great for newer U-Boots. For existing older ones, it doesn't really solve the problem. But then again, there's no way to possibly define all the partitioning schemes people may have adopted to their needs on their boards. And I believe that is why David has RedBoot and command line partitioning override what is in the DTS today. josh _______________________________________________ Linuxppc-dev mailing list Linuxppc-dev@ozlabs.org https://ozlabs.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxppc-dev
