Subject:   Beagleboard Kernel Development - Load Kernel in 2 seconds
Message-ID:  <1305996468.21869.9.camel@xeon.thinmesh.com>

next in thread | raw e-mail | index | archive | help
To help speed up Kernel development I have sent some developers a new
version of u-boot that uses the USB device to transfer the Kernel
instead of booting it off the SD card

The Kernel loads over the USB device port in about 2 seconds. 

If anybody wants a copy of the u-boot binary and the instructions to use
it just email me.

We can't use tftp from u-boot as there is no u-boot support on the
BeafleboardXM for the combo USB Host / Ethernet chip...
