Re: [U-Boot-Users] using a flat device tree to drive u-boot config

I find a device tree much easier to figure out than a tangled mess of header files, #defines, and #ifdefs...

Especially since the various config files

1) often define the CONFIG_ and CFG_ options is different order 2) are usually not designed to be flexible. That is, if you undefine a certain option, instead of handling it gracefully, U-Boot will just break.

The device trees are heirarchal, organized, and well defined. I would not apply those attributes to the config files.

Just the fact that we have CONFIG_ and CFG_ makes it too confusing.
