Made good progress today. :) Was able to get Device Tree to work on both Panda ES and Trimslice. What works: appended DTB kernels. (cat the .dtb to the end of the zimage, then generate a new uImage) What does NOT work: loading the .dtb from u-boot (similar to the initrd) One notable breakthrough was being able to boot the trimslice with the latest version of u-boot. (had to change boot.cmd to have root=/dev/mmcblk0p3) For the panda it would seem not all the parts of omap kernel are moved over to DT, some things do not work. Thanks to all those that participated! -Jon Disnard irc: masta fas: parasense _______________________________________________ arm mailing list arm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/arm
