Thanks.
Hi, sorry, I didn't clarify enough, so I had a chat for some people from the open src firmware slack, yes? And here is their answer "Ah, Peng Fan maintains the FSL QoriQ tree: https://git.u-boot-project.org/u-boot/custodians/u-boot-fsl-qoriq That is the vendor one though. So yea, I'd go with a general PowerPC tree. Also because QoriQ is both Arm and PPC series. :sweat_smile:" And even my slopper suggests the tree, for sanity purposes :D > > --- Thanks!
