Made good progress today. :)
Was able to get Device Tree to work on both Panda ES and Trimslice.
Awesome!
What works: appended DTB kernels. (cat the .dtb to the end of the
zimage, then generate a new uImage)
What does NOT work: loading the .dtb from u-boot (similar to the initrd)
It's a good start.
One notable breakthrough was being able to boot the trimslice with
the
latest version of u-boot.
(had to change boot.cmd to have root=/dev/mmcblk0p3)
OK, interesting to see why labels don't work.
For the panda it would seem not all the parts of omap kernel are
moved
over to DT, some things do not work.
Not surprised as I believe 3.7 should be the end of the OMAP DT
support additions but it's good to know it actually works which is my
primary concern so that we know it has all the bits needed in F-18.
