I'm still not sure about this. The linux Documentation/devicetree/booting-without-of.txt says there are two calling conventions for booting here, ATAGS and with-device-tree-blob, and that even with the device tree blob method it is still considered "good practise" to pass a valid machine number in r1. Can you point me to some documentation that says that -1 is OK now? (We probably ought to get round to actually implementing a -dtb option to go with -kernel and -initrd.) thanks -- PMM
