Subject: [PATCH v6 5/6] docs/system/arm/aspeed: move AST2700 content to new section
Date: Thu, 24 Apr 2025 15:51:33 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250424075135.3715128-6-jamin_lin@aspeedtech.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250424075135.3715128-1-jamin_lin@aspeedtech.com>
Moved AST2700-related content from the general Aspeed board list into a
dedicated section for Aspeed 2700 family boards. Improves clarity and
readability.
