  323. Add code for AmigaOne board
  324. (preliminary merge to U-Boot, still WIP)
  325. * Patch by Jon Diekema, 12 Nov 2002:
  326. - Adding URL for IEEE OUI lookup
  327. - Making the autoboot #defines dependent on CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_KEYED
  328. being defined.
  329. - In the CONFIG_EXTRA_ENV_SETTINGS #define, the root-on-initrd and
  330. root-on-nfs macros are designed to switch how the default boot
  331. method gets defined.
  332. * Patch by Daniel Engström, 13 Nov 2002:
  333. Add support for i386 architecture and AMD SC520 board
  334. * Patch by Pierre Aubert, 12 Nov 2002:
  335. Add support for DOS filesystem and booting from DOS floppy disk
  336. * Patch by Jim Sandoz, 07 Nov 2002:
  337. Increase number of network RX buffers (PKTBUFSRX in
  338. "include/net.h") for EEPRO100 based boards (especially SP8240)
  339. which showed "Receiver is not ready" errors when U-Boot was
  340. processing the receive buffers slower than the network controller
  341. was filling them.
  342. * Patch by Andreas Oberritter, 09 Nov 2002:
  343. Change behaviour of NetLoop(): return -1 for errors, filesize
  344. otherwise; return code 0 is valid an means no file loaded - in this
  345. case the environment still gets updated!
  346. * Patches by Jon Diekema, 9 Nov 2002:
  347. - improve ADC/DAC clocking on the SACSng board to align
  348. the failing edges of LRCLK and SCLK
  349. - sbc8260 configuration tweaks
  350. - add status LED support for 82xx systems
  351. - wire sspi/sspo commands into command handler; improved error
  352. handlering
  353. - add timestamp support and alternate memory test to the
  354. SACSng configuration
  355. * Patch by Vince Husovsky, 7 Nov 2002:
  356. Add "-n" to linker options to get rid of "Not enough room for
  357. program headers" problem
  358. * Patch by David Müller, 05 Nov 2002
  359. Rename CONFIG_PLL_INPUT_FREQ to CONFIG_SYS_CLK_FREQ
  360. so we can use an already existing name
  361. * Patch by Pierre Aubert, 05 Nov 2002
  362. Hardware relatied improvments in FDC boot code
  363. * Patch by Holger Schurig, 5 Nov 2002:
  364. Make the PXA really change it's frequency
  365. * Patch by Pierre Aubert, 05 Nov 2002
  366. Add support for slave serial Spartan 2 FPGAs
  367. * Fix uninitialized memory (MAC address) in 8xx SCC/FEC ethernet
  368. drivers
  369. * Add support for log buffer which can be passed to Linux kernel's
  370. syslog mechanism; used especially for POST results.
  371. * Patch by Klaus Heydeck, 31 Oct 2002:
  372. Add initial support for kup4k board
  373. * Patch by Robert Schwebel, 04 Nov 2002:
  374. - use watchdog to reset PXA250 systems
  375. - added progress callbacks to (some of the) ARM code
  376. - update for Cogent CSB226 board
  377. * Add support for FPS860 board
  378. * Patch by Guillaume Alexandre,, 04 Nov 2002:
  379. Improve PCI access on 32-bits Compact PCI bus
  380. * Fix mdelay() on TRAB - this was still the debugging version with
  381. seconds instead of ms.
  382. * Patch by Robert Schwebel, 1 Nov 2002:
  383. XScale related cleanup (affects all ARM boards)
  384. * Cleanup of names and README.
