So far we have many systems that are well below 256 kB. 512 kB al- ready seems to a a LOT for just a boot loader. Yes, features like UBI and graphics support cost a price, but these are still non-standard, right? > My desire is if we support a different size on 8536DS that its a size > other boards would be ok with if they needed to grow. I think this is only a Freescale internal issue.
