Hi to all,

I'd like to use u-boot lo load small applications program on a board based on IXP425. My customer has used redboot to load linux over this board and now He asked to me to write some applications to test the hardware. I tought to use u-boot because I have no knowledge on redboot and because I have already used u-boot over ixp425 few years ago. Moreover I knew that quite recently, some improvements have been made on u-boot to avoid the use of Intel APIs.

I have done some work on ixp465. I think that u-boot for ixp425 supports:

- initialization - ethernet ( if you include firmware ) - flash device. I have used cfi for the ixp465
