[U-Boot] User Question
Is this the list I can ask questions for deploying uboot to a custom board based off the blackfin bf548?
Some of my questions are not processor specific (like what is the approach to getting the micrel ks8995 and a smsc lan9215 talking and started -the ks8995 needs a spi start command)?
I've started digging into the documentation at http://www.denx.de/wiki/U-Boot/Documentation and the git repository. And I'm trying to find out if someone has already done this so I don't have to reinvent the wheel.
Thanks for any replies and my apologies if I am in the wrong spot.

I think you need to bug Mike with this stuff.
btw yes, this list should be the right place.

the bf518f-ezbrd has a ksz8803m on it, but it supports it by open-coding things in board/bf518f-ezbrd/bf518f-ezbrd.c. there's a bit more logic than normal due to it handling different revs of the board -- older ones had the switch, but newer ones do not, hence it does runtime detection to support one binary image for all revs.
i recall seeing people post about ksz switches in general, but i don't think that got anywhere, so what we did for the bf518f-ezbrd is probably your best bet for now. -mike
