Hi Andy, Embedded Planet,

I have some Embedded Planet/Freescale EP8548A v1.1 boards that I need to pull both u-boot and linux forward into the fdt era. The LTIB-based delivery is ancient (1.1.4 hacked), I would like to get u-boot to the tip of git and linux somewhere close to the tip. I'm assuming linux won't be difficult once I get u-boot pulled forward.

Apparently EP didn't submit their u-boot EP8548A board port back into the master repo (git.denx.de). :-( I've done some googling for sources and repositories and came up pretty dry. The git repos on
<http://opensource.freescale.com/> are pretty old. Like the main u-boot repo, the fsl u-boot one doesn't have the ep8548 board config.

I have the ltib u-boot source ("U-Boot 1.1.4 EKB-22022006"), but a fast-forward instead of a slow-forward would be nice to have. Has anybody worked with the EP8548A to pull it forward into the Modern Era?

Thanks,
gvb

Hi Gerald,

I'm currently working with a EP8548A, having u-boot 1.3.3 running. I'll ask my co-worker, who did the "port", for any patches.
