Curiosity? That, and I prefer Free *ware whenever that's an option. :) Nothing against the commercial alternatives, of course. But I'm already doing my own heavy lifting, because my platforms are all full-custom with very limited production runs. Since I'm into the guts of all my code anyway, I'm not inclined to outsource a bootloader development effort. Just trying to figure out where the walls of this "sandbox" are. I've been aware of the concept of Open Firmware for a while, but haven't really looked into it before now--- mostly because my impression until now was that the available implementations were both closed-source, and not supporting embedded, non-PPC targets like ARM. b.g. -- Bill Gatliff bgat@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-embedded" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
