[U-Boot] [PATCH v4 6/6] MX31: Add NAND SPL boot support to i.MX31 PDK board.
Hello,
I'm trying to boot from my board with a i.MX31 and small page (512Byte) NAND Flash. I applied the patches in v4 which introduce the CONFIG_PRELOADER macro. The only example I found where this macro is used is in part 6/6 of the patch. There a separate folder structure in nand_spl for the PDK Board is created.
Could you describe the mode of operation of the CONFIG_PRELOADER macro and in particular NAND SPL? I'm not sure how to use this functionality in my case.
Thank you very mutch, Ulrich Gerster

The whole NAND booting procedure is described i http://lists.denx.de/pipermail/u-boot/2009-April/051826.html . That description is still valid with the addition that CONFIG_PRELOADER is now defined when compiling the NAND SPL (in step 2). Also nand_boot_mx31.c has been renamed to nand_boot_fsl_nfc.c.
