Hi Wolfgang,
I got a board that uses u-boot to load the system. The u-boot is installed and already working. Now I want to configure u-boot to load another rootfs through nfs. The original bootargs variable has less than 255 characters but with the new configuration the variable will be more than that. I just want to know if it's just a configuration that I have to setup or I have the recompile u-boot...
Sorry to bother, I will search at the docs for this...
Thanks for the reply, Paulo Flabiano Smorigo

I recommend you start reading the documentation. For example, the file README explains which configuration settings are responsible for console buffer sizes.
You know that you are supposed to read the docs *before* posting, aren't you?
characters. I want to set the bootargs parameter with more than 300
chars...
This makes no sense. You should really study the documentation - in this case the manual, hich explains in detail how you can create the boot arguments dynamically from smaller building blocks - this is much more flexible and easier to handle in case you need to change anything.
Best regards,
