Long While I agree in principle with Scott's point that it would be good to understand and fix/improve the ARM bootm_linux_fdt() function, I have bought into Dave's argument that this is a useful environment variable and is symmetric with "initrd_high". Consequently, I've added this patch to the u-boot-fdt repo. If anyone has strong objects, now is the time to object strongly. ;-) Thanks, gvb
