You can use U-boot but it is not the default in our current distribution. Our u-boot SPARC tree can boot the kernel available on our website: http://git.denx.de/?p=u-boot/u-boot-sparc.git;a=summary U-boot is also delivered with the board. The current mainline kernel is not supported at the moment because it needs to have the OF tree generated by the boot loader (the tree is generated from on chip plug and play information). We should try to get this code into the kernel instead ... Best regards, Kristoffer Glembo Aeroflex Gaisler
