Dear "jonsmirl@gmail.com",
In message CAKON4Oy2tP3500n4YfHji6O3N7Gz=6-E6MuMhm5nwAKNfNtOnA@mail.gmail.com you wrote:
The hardware has a good sized eeprom on it. Is there any uboot support for having device trees or partial devices trees in the eeprom? Could the device tree be part of the uboot environment?
You can access an EEPROM using the "eeprom read" and "eeprom write" commands - that's all you should need here.
NO, you cannot put the DT blob (nor any other binary data) in the environment (at least not without adding code for handling binary blobs, which in turn would probably cause more problems that it helps). In short, forget that...
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk
