Greetings

Having enabled the above config item, I'm silenced all late boot and Linux messages.

Any clues as to the 'correct' way to silence the early boot (i.e. prior to defining stdin/stdout handling) messages? Should I set the silent flag at the point of reading the baudrate (in libppc/board.c) and obey it in common/console/put[s|c] when stdout is not defined? I'm not sure if the global (gd structure) environment is large enough when running in flash to do this...

Environment is mpc8xx system running 1.0.0 u-boot.

See for example the TRAB board.
