Subject: bootloader support for DTB on x86
Date: Tue, 22 May 2012 14:56:22 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20120522125622.GA21187@avionic-0098.mockup.avionic-design.de> (raw)

Hi,
I was looking at booting an x86-based platform using DT. However I wasn't
able to find a bootloader that supports this. There also doesn't seem to be a
method to append the DTB to the zImage (which I wouldn't want to use anyway).
Does anybody know of a bootloader that supports this?
I'm currently using syslinux (specifically extlinux) and was looking at
perhaps adding the support myself based on the information given in
Documentation/x86/boot.txt. However I'm not overly familiar with syslinux
code and this could prove more difficult than I anticipate.
The only x86 platforms that use DT seem to be OLPC and CE4100 and according
to the web the OLPC has a complete OF implementation. Does anyone know which
bootloader the CE4100 uses?
Thierry
