Theoretically you are right, but I guess it's hardcoded in the bootloader (PSPBoot) which doesn't give any choice on where stuff is loaded to. As I don't have the sources of that, I cannot replace it (apart from that, "normal" users may not want to replace a bootloader even if it was possible, as it is a risky thing to do). The same obviously applies for the mtd partitioning scheme and prom-environment signature which are also pure software differences... Was U-Boot or eCos/RedBoot ever ported to AR7? If yes, I might give it a shot... (the board I got has EJTAG, so I dare to do quite everything with it)
Anyway, I'm currently preparing a new series of patches which will integrate AC49x as a subtarget of AR7 with way less code duplication involved... I'll propose it together with sub-targetting the target/ar7 once I got things sufficiently tested. _______________________________________________ openwrt-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openwrt.org/mailman/listinfo/openwrt-devel
