In particular note

• the decision for the focus in a two-pronged approach for short and

long term goals ( see https://wiki.linaro.org/OfficeofCTO/BootArchitecture/2011-10-06#Minutes for details, below is just a summary)

• SHORT TERM pain points are summarized below - the list needs

priorization and to be shown to the TSC so that suitable resources are assigned to do the work

• support for Uboot
• kernel update process/method
• making every uboot behave the same way
• how does uboot decide what kernel to load - does not have to be

uboot specific fix, could be a script for uboot

• single zImage able to boot on multiple SOCs
• support for grub on uboot.
• Port tianocore as a uboot app
• uboot should understand which is the active partition - or should

have a mechanism to tell the user which is the active partition

as we agree we are supposed to do it on multiple bootloader this sound u-boot only

can we put resources on other one as Barebox where a lots of issue are already fix
