Names and Spelling:
* The bootm command automatically updates the fdt
OF_TBCLK - The timebase frequency.
- OF_STDOUT_PATH - The path to the console device
boards with QUICC Engines require OF_QE to set UCC MAC
addresses
This setting is mandatory for all boards that have only one
machine type and must be used to specify the machine type
number as it appears in the ARM machine registry
- (see http://www.arm.linux.org.uk/developer/machines/).
+ (see https://www.arm.linux.org.uk/developer/machines/).
Only boards that have multiple machine types supported
in a single configuration file and the machine type is
runtime discoverable, do not have to use this setting.
SoC, then define this variable and provide board
specific code for the "hw_watchdog_reset" function.
+ CONFIG_SYS_WATCHDOG_FREQ
+ Some platforms automatically call WATCHDOG_RESET()
+ from the timer interrupt handler every
+ CONFIG_SYS_WATCHDOG_FREQ interrupts. If not set by the
+ board configuration file, a default of CONFIG_SYS_HZ/2
+ (i.e. 500) is used. Setting CONFIG_SYS_WATCHDOG_FREQ
+ to 0 disables calling WATCHDOG_RESET() from the timer
+ interrupt.

- Real-Time Clock:
When CONFIG_CMD_DATE is selected, the type of the RTC
try longer timeout such as
#define CONFIG_NFS_TIMEOUT 10000UL
-- Command Interpreter:
- CONFIG_SYS_PROMPT_HUSH_PS2
-
- This defines the secondary prompt string, which is
- printed when the command interpreter needs more input
- to complete a command. Usually "> ".
-
Note:
In the current implementation, the local variables
CONFIG_SYS_OR3_PRELIM, CONFIG_SYS_BR3_PRELIM:
Memory Controller Definitions: BR2/3 and OR2/3 (SDRAM)
-- CONFIG_PCI_ENUM_ONLY
- Only scan through and get the devices on the buses.
- Don't do any setup work, presumably because someone or
- something has already done it, and we don't need to do it
- a second time. Useful for platforms that are pre-booted
- by coreboot or similar.

- CONFIG_PCI_INDIRECT_BRIDGE:
Enable support for indirect PCI bridges.

-The "dumpimage" is a tool to disassemble images built by mkimage. Its "-i"
-option performs the converse operation of the mkimage's second form (the "-d"
-option). Given an image built by mkimage, the dumpimage extracts a "data file"
-from the image:
-
- tools/dumpimage -i image -T type -p position data_file
- -i ==> extract from the 'image' a specific 'data_file'
- -T ==> set image type to 'type'
- -p ==> 'position' (starting at 0) of the 'data_file' inside the 'image'
-
+The "dumpimage" tool can be used to disassemble or list the contents of images
+built by mkimage. See dumpimage's help output (-h) for details.
Installing a Linux Image:

Unix, I recommend to use C-Kermit for general purpose use (and
especially for kermit binary protocol download ("loadb" command), and
use "cu" for S-Record download ("loads" command). See
