I have a suggestion/question.
Would it be easy, hard, silly to add a CLONE command to the make file? (Are a separate make script?) So if someone wants to create a new board based on an existing board they could just type,
Easy and silly. You cannot do such stuff automatically without doing stupid things like copying a lot of code that either is board specific or should be shared.
The make file would clone the at91sam9263ek board configuration and put it in a new directory called myboard and update the makefile?
And what would that save you? 2 minutes of work in a one man-week task?
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk
