U-Boot source versions
Sorry to bother y'all again with another stupid question... I have finally received my GTA02 hardware unit, and I'm starting to bring up my software stack. Starting with the bootloader. I want to use U-Boot, not Qi. And I have two questions which I hope someone might be able to help me with: 1. Which version/branch of U-Boot should I use? I've tried looking at what's available on git.openmoko.org, found the u-boot.git tree, but there are several different branches in it, all appearing about equally recent, and all feature commit messages that look relevant to the GTA02. Which is the good one to use? 2. How can I find the U-Boot source that *exactly* corresponds to what is already in the NOR flash from the factory? It identifies itself as U-Boot 1.3.2-moko12 (May 9 2008 - 10:28:48). I haven't been able to find a tag named moko12 in git, but maybe it's just my poor git skills. U-Boot is GPL'ed... Doesn't it require supplying the source that corresponds *exactly* to the binaries you ship? Again, sorry to bother you all, but if someone can point me in the right direction, it would help me a lot.

Re: U-Boot source versions
I guess i am only u-boot user left in community :) I tried to fix few annoying bugs and using own u-boot version, you can find description here: http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/U-boot-gena2x It works pretty well here except nasty problem with sd card.

I am not looking for a prebuilt binary, I want a source tree that I would then compile myself. That U-boot-gena2x wiki page contains a link to a binary but no source - isn't that in violation of the GPL? I would also prefer to stick to one of the branches in the u-boot.git tree on git.openmoko.org, but my problem is that there are several to choose from: I see good-looking branches named stable, zecke, andy, mokopatches and willie. What are the relative merits of these branches? *That* is the question I am looking for help with.

Nice that you care about licenses, no violation because link to sources is provided on wiki page I would also prefer to stick to one of the branches in the u-boot.git tree on git.openmoko.org, but my problem is that there are several to choose from: I see good-looking branches named stable, zecke, andy, mokopatches and willie.

GPL's requirement of providing the source simply happens to coincide with an identical requirement in my personal belief system. no violation because link to sources is provided on wiki page OK, never mind, it looks like I have found the link to your git repo: I don't know why I missed it the first time, sorry about that. Also looking at the commit tree in your git repo seems to have indirectly answered my original question: please correct me if I missed something, but it looks like what you have is simply a few of your own commits on top of openmoko/stable, which is the stable branch from git.openmoko.org. Did I get that right? If so, it means the good branch in the git.openmoko.org tree is the one named stable, right? When you had started your own branch and chose openmoko/stable as the baseline, did you evaluate the others? Does anyone know if they have any merits over the stable branch? Sure you can stick to git.openmoko.org, but nobody maintain that git and it has few unfixed bugs. I will most certainly look at your patches and I may indeed like them. But I want to establish my baseline first. MS ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

Does anyone know if they have any merits over the stable branch? I just choosen branch which had most recent changes. zecke has only 3 meaningless patches (and lacks some patches from stable), andy is older and has 1 additional patch (and lacks some patches from stable), mokopatches is even older and a root of both above, nothing additional willie is something even older. I actually see nothing to choose from. Gennady. ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
