Hi Thomas, As Enric said, u-boot has SPL and NAND support for IGEP since v2012.10-rc1. I just tried kernel a 3.6 with u-boot v2012.10-rc2 and it works for me. But I agree that the kernel shouldn't do any assumptions about the bootloader setting correctly the omap mux. Could you please share your bootloader that makes the kernel to fail (or your IGEP NAND patches on top of u-boot U-boot 2011.12) so I can reproduce the issue and try to fix it? Thanks a lot and best regards, Javier -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-omap" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
