York is mistaken. The CRC was always at location 0xFC, but for some reason, when I wrote the code, I put it at 0xCC. Now I'm fixing it, and providing some backwards compatibility to avoid causing problems for people who upgrade U-Boot on existing boards. I don't see how this is controversial in any way. -- Timur Tabi Linux kernel developer at Freescale _______________________________________________ U-Boot mailing list U-Boot@lists.denx.de http://lists.denx.de/mailman/listinfo/u-boot
