There's two ways to go about improving the out of box experience. One of which would be to switch "beaglebone" to am335x_boneblack config which will switch env saving to eMMC and leave BBW just as unable to have persisent env (outside of uEnv.txt) as today. Another would be to bring in http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/375824/ (which will be merged to mainline) and https://git.ti.com/ti-u-boot/ti-u-boot/commit/b8fce957880e6c4194614260f70be4e7f2c9f469 (which will not, we'll instead get env location migrated to Kconfig choices and leave it to the user to pick where they want things to be) which puts everything in a binary file on the FAT partition of the SD card which is also pretty frequently available. Either one is honestly a fine improvement. -- Tom -- _______________________________________________ meta-ti mailing list [email protected] https://lists.yoctoproject.org/listinfo/meta-ti
