The entire point of this series is to prevent distros from having to install bootloader-specific boot configuration files. As such, relying exclusively on boot.scr wouldn't be useful. If we need to support other OSs, I think it'd be best to extend extlinux.conf to allow it to support booting OSs besides Linux. FWIW, if extlinux.conf isn't found on the media, this patch does fall back to searching for boot.scr (a uImage of a U-Boot script) so it's certainly possible to make custom things happen if you want. _______________________________________________ U-Boot mailing list U-Boot@lists.denx.de http://lists.denx.de/mailman/listinfo/u-boot
