To quote The Dude: "Yeah, well, you know, that's just, like, your opinion, man." I'm sorry, but Linux does depend on the boot loader, and U-Boot does need to know whether Linux is going to use 36-bit addressing. That's just the way it works. Linux patches that repeat what U-Boot already does just so that you don't need to update your U-boot are going to be rejected. -- Timur Tabi Linux kernel developer at Freescale _______________________________________________ Linuxppc-dev mailing list Linuxppc-dev@lists.ozlabs.org https://lists.ozlabs.org/listinfo/linuxppc-dev
