[U-Boot] U-Boot Digest, Vol 26, Issue 18

[Billy Huang]

Hi,

I'm completely new here, but looking to ask what's the best way to send in a
patch for the Xilinx SP601 board?

I've got it working and tested on two separate boards, however a key point
is that I don't use the microblaze-generic functionality (just the
microblaze) since I found it power pc specific.

Key features include:
10/100mb Emaclite Ethernet.  (I tried using the gigabit Ethernet but only
DMA mode rather than FIFO mode seemed close to working.)
Flash support
(ENV only in ram currently)

Best regards, and many thanks for U-Boot!

Billy.

Please do not write that "a key point is that I don't use the 
microblaze-generic functionality". A lot of people use it and have no 
problem with it. Take a look at

If you don't know how to use it then you can create your own boards 
that's ok.

Regards,
Michal
