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