Subject: [PATCH/RFC] Allow CONFIG_OF_FLAT_TREE to boot a non-arch/powerpc kernel
Date: Thu, 26 Oct 2006 15:08:44 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <11618969241015-git-send-email-grant.likely@secretlab.ca> (raw)
This patch allows an arch/ppc kernel to be booted by just passing 1 or 2
arguments to bootm. It removes the getenv("disable_of") test that used
to be used for this purpose.
