I just ran a quick test on an 8349 board, and it appears that everywhere ppc_md.progress() is called, printk() works, too. Is there any platform where ppc_md.progress() does something different than printk()? Is there any point in the boot process where ppc_md.progress() works but printk() doesn't? -- Timur Tabi Linux Kernel Developer @ Freescale
