Re: [U-Boot] [ANNOUNCE] DATAFLASH DRIVER

I agree with Haavard

...

The whole storage concept is really not working when storage becomes larger than the SDRAM.

How do you download an 128 MB image over the network to a machine with 64 MB SDRAM. - Major pain... You need to be able to TFTP to flash directly if you want to have an easy user interface.

Or start an operating system which can do all of this much faster and with support for more protocols.

Not necessarely you cn need to update or install the image from u-boot

...

That is likely to require another way of handling storage. and parameter parsing so you can do tftp mmc0:kernel linux-2.6.28 or tftp df3:fs rootfs.arm.ext2

Now, I kind of like that syntax, but I seem to recall it got shot down at some point too.

I like too
