+Build kernel and dtb for P1010RDB +================================= +set proper cross-compile for powerpc

I doubt most people will want to use -j 16.
Why are kernel build instructions in a U-Boot readme? Shouldn't you be building the uImage target?
+Boot Linux from RAM on P1010RDB +================================== +Place uImage and p1010rdb.dtb in the TFTP disk area.
- => tftp 1000000 uImage
- => tftp 2000000 p1010rdb.dtb
- => tftp 3000000 rootfs.ext2.gz.uboot.p1010rdb

I'd call that "booting from the network using TFTP" rather than "booting from RAM"...

Dear Scott Wood,
In message 4F9EF540.90302@freescale.com you wrote:
- => tftp 1000000 u-boot.bin

=> tftp <filename>
This is discouraged. tftp takes an address as first argument. So please write
=> tftp $loadaddr <filename>
=> protect off all
Why unprotecting everything? To me it seems much more logical to issue;
=> protect off eff80000 +$filesize
i. e. use exactly the same arguments as for the "erase".
- => tftp 1000000 u-boot-nand.bin
- => nand erase 0 80000
- => nand write 1000000 0 80000
=> tftp <filename> => nand erase 0 $filesize
Ditto.etc.

Wolfgang Denk
