I doubt this is really going to happen because the majority of code is specific to the mechanism used to boot a kernel that is arch specific. (ie, the ePAPR style interface on PPC, the TAGs support on ARM, etc.) I dont see how we reduce code in that area (since it seems fundamentally arch specific). - k ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ U-Boot-Users mailing list U-Boot-Users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/u-boot-users
