It is a case, however, in which I like the answer--no more need to run mkimage. The conversion process of a boot.scr script (commands) to a uEnv.txt file (variable setting) won't be exactly trivial, so that has me a tiny bit concerned. Still, most cases will be solved by a *much* simpler uEnv.txt script and an overall simpler process. I still see a need to use the USER button to go into some sort of fall-back state to ignore this file and boot some sort of recovery image. Since that code isn't upstream yet, there is still going to be some delta between upstream and what ships on the board--unless I can somehow figure out an easy way to get a command added for the generic gpio framework. > > Regards, > > -- > Robert Nelson > http://www.rcn-ee.com/ > _______________________________________________ U-Boot mailing list U-Boot@lists.denx.de http://lists.denx.de/mailman/listinfo/u-boot
