Matthias already did send a NAK for the esd boards (on Monday).

I have to admit that I like the spinning wheel better as well. Especially the 
resulting output after the calibration is finished looks better on 
the "normal" terminal:

DRAM:  256 MB (original version)

instead of:

DRAM:  Auto calibration: ..........256 MB (your new version)

I understand that the spinning wheel is not optimal for logfiles, but for the 
normal usage it just looks nicer for my taste. So I would prefer to stay with 
the spinning wheel, but if you decide that the 4xx DDR2 calibration mustn't 
use this, then let's apply your patch for the cpu/ppc4xx files.

Best regards,
Stefan
