Hello All,
I have bsp from freescale for mpc8313erdb evalutaion board. the board is up and running no issues with it as of now. But in u-boot the autoboot option is not enabled and I would like to have enabled. I believe that I need to do some changes in the u-boot source code. Could anyone please point me towards the way that how I can enable the autoboot option? where the sources and CONFIG option for autoboot is located ? ? ?
Kindly please acknowledge ... thank you.
Kind Regards, Vijay Nikam

Have a grep 'BOOTDELAY' in the README, and have a look the doc/README.autoboot.
Thanks, Dave

The main mpc8313erdb config file is in include/configs/MPC8313ERDB.h Set bootargs in u-boot command if you just want to autoboot. For example, setenv bootargs root=/dev/nfs rw ${mtdparts} nfsroot=10.0.0.5:/tftpboot/10.0.0.6/,rsize=1500,wsize=1500 ip=10.0.0.6:10.0.0.5:10.0.0.5:255.0.0.0:mpc8313erdb:eth1:off panic=1 console=ttyS0,115200; saveenv;
You also can modify the CONFIG_EXTRA_ENV_SETTINGS define in include/configs/MPC8313ERDB.h file directly.

Dear "H. Johnny",

This is nonsense. The "bootargs" variable is completely unrelated to autoboot.
You also can modify the CONFIG_EXTRA_ENV_SETTINGS define in include/configs/MPC8313ERDB.h file directly.
Nonsense again. CONFIG_EXTRA_ENV_SETTINGS is also unrelated.
These settings have NOTHING to do whether a board autoboots or not.

Yes, I misunderstand the problem. Use CONFIG_BOOTDELAY to enable/disable for autoboot.
