Subject: [U-Boot] [Patch] bootelf should allow arguments passing to called program
Date: Sun, 19 Jul 2009 17:28:14 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4A633B8E.8060802@embedded-brains.de> (raw)

The bootelf command is written to pass the command line arguments to the
called program, but the command list entry limits the number of
arguments to 2 (including the command itself and the image address).

Changing the command list entry allows passing command line arguments to
the called program.
