I think this is the best way to do it - there's already a ppc_md struct kicking around which is semi-meant for this kind of thing. > If I got it correct this is how the Freescale team plans to proceed. Good. It might actually happen if enough of us want it to :-) > Jon (Masters), are you going the same way? Yes, but I'm more than willing to pitch in with the Freescale guys if that'll get things done faster - they've obviously got more manpower. I wanted to get this thing done already! :-) > Anyone using arch/ppc/boot/simple bootwrapper with his Virtex 2 Pro > board? If we drop Virtex 2 Pro support in arch/ppc/boot and move to > U-Boot would it hurt anyone? I don't use it. I have a very simple bootloader which I use on our Memec based design - comes in straight off sysace and jumps at the kernel after doing simple diagnostics, avoided the need for porting an existing boot loader and it's reasonably able to cope with braindead Xilinx HALs.
