For example: Oops, I was just extrapolating that U-Boot would work. I've quit using it because of the extra configuration work (particularly the compiled text files for the boot scripts). I haven't looked into how SMP works, because I don't have the interrupt support necessary yet (bcm2836-irq branch for hacks in that direction). And in further testing, the USB is actually not working and I'm not sure what gave me the idea that it was. -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
