John,
I pulled the tree from:
source: git://gitorious.org/pandaboard/u-boot.git branch: origin/omap4_panda_es2.0 board config: omap4430panda_config
(referenced http://omappedia.org/wiki/OMAP_Pandroid_Main#Getting_Started)

In the Linaro set up u-boot will look for uImage (and not for kernel).

hi Patrik,
Does this imply that we requires u-boot as necessary support for common LEB?
I am not sure if we should introduce an abstract provider for kernel image, but I prefer to specify in board configurations since we might migrate to other 'fastboot' compatible boot loader implementations such as lk (little kernel) used in Qualcomm patform.
I haven't gotten into lk too much (used it and the legacy fastboot), but it seems that sticking with u-boot may be a better approach since it has wider community support and better cross-platform support. Was there a specific reason to move to lk?
I am happy to have a discussion about our default android bootloader at LDS in budapest.
IIRC, one blueprint that John Rigby wanted to own is about adding fastboot support to u-boot ... maybe thats a good compromise instead of lk?
That would be very nice. There's actually some documentation in u-boot about fastboot (a README). I wonder if there's some support already?
Yes, I was told that someone (TI?) had a public tree with it. If all goes well, John (CCed) would review those, clean the patches up, upstream and integrate then into our u-boot branches so we can have them for our LEB builds as well.
