It shouldn't matter who passes the flattened tree really, so long as the information is correct. arch/ppc/boot/simple/ should translate older-non-uboot-bd_t, or PReP residual, or statically construct, or some combination, into the tree and pass it in. U-Boot (or yaboot or grub or whatever) can just pass it right to the kernel. Part of the point of this is to move to a defined interface :) -- Tom Rini http://gate.crashing.org/~trini/
