I've been using an Arndale board. It needed a small bit of rework to
simplify power cycling the board, otherwise it's been quite good.

I should probably mention, there is no need for much of a U-Boot script
anymore. To boot with a uImage, my bootcmd is quite literally "tftpboot;
bootm". Obviously we still have to do the same dance with plan9.ini, but I
can live with that, though I do have some plans on how to deal with that
later.
U-Boot also performs relocation based on the load address which simplifies
the boot process. I'm working on an XIP kernel, which has cut around 100
LOC out of l.s. It's a small change, but simplifies things considerably.

Not as trivial as raw binary, which we currently use for u-boot loading
on most ARMs. The uImage format contains the load and entry address so
you don't have to look up 'man 8 booting' or check the kernel mkfile before
setting up the u-boot script. Are there

What's the advantage of using a uImage instead of elf or raw binary?
USB has been working quite well so far. The Arndale board has an onboard
ASIX, which has been working quite well for tftp booting kernel images.

he! does that leave you land-locked,
'ish. Samsung's documents are somewhat rough, but enough to get a basic
debugging environment setup. I've recently added support to U-Boot for Plan
9 kernel images and submitted a patch (arm-uboot), which adds an option to
the loader to generate a uImage. Eventually I need to write everything up
so

Damn you Gmail. Damn you.
Hey Anthony,
I'd be happy to sign up as a Mentor again this year. I haven't added this
to the ideas page yet since I've been keeping the project mostly quiet, but
I've been working on porting Plan 9 to the ARM Chromebook. It might not be
the best project for a student since at the moment, it requi
