Great. > > But how about NAND support for the main U-Boot (load Linux from NAND etc.)? It seems to be missing. Is somebody working on this? Yes, see: https://github.com/NextThingCo/CHIP-u-boot https://github.com/jwrdegoede/u-boot-sunxi/commits/sunxi-nand-wip > Whats the current status here? We want to use the Linux kernel code for the main U-Boot, which is not fully upstream yet (and will likely not be for a while) as it needs per partition config (ecc / scrambler) settings, as well as merging of scrambler support into the upstream kernel first. We will likely have a u-boot branch with this working soon-ish, but getting this merged is a different story. Regards, Hans
