It is pxe boot support inside u-boot, but this support can fallback to reading extlinux.conf from external media located in extlinux folder if no pxe network server was available on boot. And boards which have pxe/extlinux support available in their u-boot configs read extlinux.conf file prior to boot.scr file. >> >>>> I think nobody worked on it until now. >>>> >>> >>> Oh, I see. >>> >>> But first I am going to introduce additional env variable to simplify >>> selection of the kernel version from u-boot command line. >>> >>> After then, I would highly want to have fallback possibility like the >>> following: >>> >>> https://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/legacy/Booting-fallback-systems.html >>> which can be implemented using u-boot uEnv.txt file >>> >>> >>> -- >>> To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-arm+unsubscr...@opensuse.org >>> To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-arm+ow...@opensuse.org >>> >> >> >> > > > -- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-arm+unsubscr...@opensuse.org > To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-arm+ow...@opensuse.org > -- Best Regards, Misha Komarovskiy zombahatgmaildotcom -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-arm+unsubscr...@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-arm+ow...@opensuse.org
