Normally this is partition 1, but different +partitions can be set with U-Boot environment variables. + +This version is patched so that: + * ELF and API features are enabled. + * The default environment is trimmed to just what's needed to boot. + * The saveenv command writes to the file uboot.env on the FAT partition. + * The DTB file name is passed to ubldr using the fdtfile env variable. + It defaults to omap4-panda.dtb unless you override it. ubldr loads + the DTB from /boot/dtb/ on the FreeBSD partition. + (Not tested) + * By default, it loads ELF ubldr from file ubldr on the FAT partition + to address 0x88000000, and launches it. + +For information about running FreeBSD on the PandaBoard, see + https://wiki.freebsd.org/FreeBSD/arm/PandaBoard + +For general information about U-Boot see WWW: http://www.denx.de/wiki/U-Boot |
