I can try and get something together for you. I was not planning on
using 2014.10 at all. But I think that given whats going in, we should
move to it. I do need to get a Fedora 21 Test Compose out this week.
sorry for the slow response, because i was directly copied on the email
it went though an unusual path of my procmail recipes and ended up in a
folder I do not often check. as it gets mostly spam.
Ok, so I've managed to get write a patch for this myself, currently it
only sets the dtb filename for the bananapi, I will add to all the
other boards tomorrow and then submit it upstream, in the mean time
you can find it here:
https://github.com/jwrdegoede/u-boot-sunxi/commits/next
The last commit there is a slightly cleaned-up version of your:
"automatically add console= to bootline when not existing"
patch, I would also like to submit that one upstream, may I add
your (Dennis)' Signed-off-by to it ?
Regards,
Hans
