The reason for the change was the hardcoded (and imho odd) naming convention. I explicitly asked Thiago to commit soon so we could get it in the release. It's ofcourse unfortunate that FOSDEM got in between and that you have special at91 specific magic in the tree which got broken. >> Sure, we should try to make sure everything still works, but we also >> HAVE to make it easy to do so - That means among others that the >> various platforms should behave similary. >> Ulf> Each platform in u-boot behaves differently anyway. Ulf> You define the functionality of u-boot in the board header file. Sure, that's why the only sane default is to use the filenames the upstream projects use as that's what people expect. This doesn't mean that we shouldn't provide a setting (like the suffix/prefix thing) to use other names if people want that, but it shouldn't be default. -- Bye, Peter Korsgaard
