MIPS support
Hi
I'm a little confused,
in the web page http://sourceforge.net/projects/u-boot/ it says:
"CPU architectures are supported: PowerPC(MPC5xx, MPC8xx, MPC82xx, MPC7xx, MPC74xx, 4xx), ARM(ARM7, ARM9, StrongARM, Xscale), MIPS(4Kc,5Kc),"
but when I loaded the u-boot-0.4.0 version , I read the README file and there it says:
"* Target CPU Architecture (Provisions for Alpha, ARM, Intel x86,
IA64, MIPS, MIPS, PowerPC, IBM S390, SuperH, Sparc, Sparc 64 Bit; Currently supported: PowerPC)."
So I wanted to know if someone has a clue whether the README file isn't update or the web site,
and if someone tried to run it on a MIPS.
(I saw under the lib cpu that there is a dir for the MIPS)
Thanks alot

Oops. Sorry. Fixed now. Thanks for pointing out.

I missed to edit this line in the README. U-Boot supports ARM, Intel x86, MIPS, NIOS, and PowerPC.

There are two existing ports to the MIPS architecture: INCA-IP is a MIPS32 4Kc system, and Purple is a MIPS64 5Kc system.
Best regards,
