Hell, Gerhard, this is a policy in human interaction :-D We always speak in full sentences and this is also true for U-Boot, Linux, ELDK, Yocto, you name it ... :) Best regards, Marek Vasut _______________________________________________ eldk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.denx.de/mailman/listinfo/eldk
