The wiki page that explains the problem and provides the suggested solutions does not repeat that same mantra. It mentions the initramfs method as one way out of several - I don't think it mentions that solution as particularly better in any way. Wolfgang also repeated (most of) them here just a few mails ago in this thread. -- / daniel.haxx.se _______________________________________________ U-Boot mailing list [email protected] http://lists.denx.de/mailman/listinfo/u-boot
