Dear Wolfgang,
I will post two boards "aquila" and "goni". (s5pc110 soc)
These board are very similar and can detect the board by gpio. (at runtime)
So, I want to support these two boards at same board file.
Thus, I will use same binary at two boards.
How you think?
Please give your opinion.
Thanks
Minkyu Kang

We usually don't want or even accept code duplications resulting from similar
boards. So I definitely prefer such a runtime detection of the board type.
Cheers,
Stefan

OK.

Sorry, but I fail to see a question?

Question...
How I can configure the board directory?
board/samsung/aquila or board/samsung/goni?
or need another naming for two boards?
Thanks

Use either name (but don't invent a third one). Which one to use -
that's your choice. I cannot answer this. If one of the two boards is
more general or more popular than the other, then use this one.

Hi,
My bet is goni. Since it's new GPIO based board.
Thank you,
Kyungmin Park
