bd_t definition changes
Hi All,
I am trying to boot linux 2.4.24 (from ELDK 3.0) on an EST SBC8260 using U-Boot 1.1.1 which I downloaded from the Denx ftp site.
U-Boot seems to be working just fine. I can tftpboot the uImage and start executing the kernel using bootm. But...
I have discovered that the bd_t (board info) being seen by the kernel does not match what it expects. Looking closer at the source, I can see that the definition of this structure differs between that in the kernel (arch/ppc/platforms/est8260.h) and U-Boot (include/asm-ppc/u-boot.h).
Should I fix the kernel version and submit it as a patch, or will that break other things?? Recommendations welcome!
Thanks
Rich

Delete the definition in arch/ppc/platforms/est8260.h and replace it by a simple "#include <asm/ppcboot.h>" -- see any other board with U-Boot support for reference, for example "arch/ppc/platforms/tqm8260.h"
