[U-Boot-Users] New board support patches
Hello,
I have two questions. First, is there any particular way the patches should be created for the submission of code for supporting a new board?
Second, this is a question for the Freescale maintainers, my board is based on the 8313erdb, and will only support NAND flash as its boot ROM. Is there a reason that the NAND support (patches) that was delivered with the BSP were not ever included into the u-boot project?
Ron

It'll be in u-boot soon. Patches have been posted for basic NAND access, and I'll probably work on NAND booting sometime next month.

So then should I wait on submitting patches for my board, or will that even make any sort of difference?
