Dear Wolfgang:
I believe that it is not setting any configuration information. In
many boards the TEXT_BASE address is set up in the makefile depending
if the user wants to compile u-boot for ram o for flash. Like the
acadia (and many others)
@echo "TEXT_BASE = 0x01000000" > $(obj)board/amcc/acadia/config.tmp
I have no problem in setting the Makefile in the classic way, I just
wanted to create a new way with the less code replication possible.
Shall I continue with this idea or I move back to the old way?
Regards
