This version is patched so that: |
| 7 |
* ELF and API features are enabled. |
| 8 |
* The default environment is trimmed to just what's needed to boot. |
| 9 |
* The saveenv command writes to the file u-boot.env on the FAT partition. |
| 10 |
* The DTB file name is chosen based on the board model and passed to ubldr.bin |
| 11 |
using the fdtfile env variable. ubldr.bin loads the DTB from /boot/dtb/ on |
| 12 |
the FreeBSD partition. |
| 13 |
* By default, it loads PIE ubldr.bin from file ubldr.bin on the FAT partition |
| 14 |
to address 0x42000000, and launches it. |
