Hello, We have a custom hardware platform that uses a 600MHz TI AM3354 and stores U-Boot-SPL, U-Boot and the Linux kernel in an SPI NOR flash device with the intent of using Falcon mode to boot the kernel directly. I have found that the performance is very poor when it comes to the system boot and in particular reading the kernel from the SPI flash device. We are currently investigating that but we are also looking at whether Barebox may be a better alternative based on comments made by Michael Opdenacker in a presentation at ELC2014. Does anyone have a feel, or actual figures, on how much faster Barebox would be over U-Boot for this kind of platform? Thanks, Andy. _______________________________________________ barebox mailing list barebox@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/barebox
