[Buildroot] Rpi Open Firmware package

[Buildroot] Rpi Open Firmware package

[Clément Péron]

Hi,

I would like to know, if someone try to use the rpi-open-firmware to
load U-boot bootloader for RPI boards ?
https://github.com/christinaa/rpi-open-firmware/

I have a Rpi Zero W and succesfully make it boot the kernel through U-boot.
I would like to boot a bit faster and with an open bootloader (btw I
don't need the VPU).

Is there something I missed or should I be able to quickly boot all
the IPs with this configuration?
RPI bootrom code -> RPI-open-firmware -> U-boot -> Kernel.

Thanks,
Cl?ment

Interesting project, thanks for the hint, the project was new to me
(and did not yet try it out)....
