Hi, Denk:
Thanks for your answer!
So, sandbox represents a software version control in u-boot development?

Best wishes,

How would you come tho this assumption?

The link I quoted:

> See especially entry  http://bit.ly/Wt1c

clearly states: "A sandbox is a testing environment ... in the context
of software development".  That's it - no more, no less.

EEhm, sandbox is U-Boot running as a userland program. Think about it as UML 
(user-mode linux).
