We have a custom board based on a BBB. It has the eeprom on it, but we'd like to get rid of it.
Initially, to bring up the board, we programmed the eeprom as a BBB. Now we want to remove it. I patched it with: https://github.com/RobertCNelson/Bootloader-Builder/blob/master/patches/v2016.03/0002-NFM-Production-eeprom-assume-device-is-BeagleBone-Bl.patch <https://www.google.com/url?q=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2FRobertCNelson%2FBootloader-Builder%2Fblob%2Fmaster%2Fpatches%2Fv2016.03%2F0002-NFM-Production-eeprom-assume-device-is-BeagleBone-Bl.patch&sa=D&sntz=1&usg=AFQjCNGnhimWUgc0DkmSZ6-eIXSoIqCBng> Now it boots with an empty eeprom. I thought the patch would be enough, but after removing the eeprom from the board, I get nothing at all on the console. Something must be failing very early on in u-boot for it not to print anything. I believe that the Linux kernel will not need the eeprom and it's only used in u-boot to pick which .dtb to load, correct?
