We need a FAT partition
Why are all of them (I mean vendor supplied U-boot) so in love with FAT? There is support of ext2 in U-boot, and they boot nothing but Linux.
Yeah, can't we do the RPi model with binary blobs (FAT) + /boot (ext2) + / (ext4)?
Hm? You and Marcus already did that for the RPi looong time ago. :) For the Parallella the issue is that downstream U-Boot is on flash, and I don't want to brick the board I had to wait for so long with U-Boot upstreaming experiments of my own. (There's no direct JTAG connector.) I could try to change my local boot environment, but then a JeOS image would not be of general use. By default, it tries to boot uImage + devicetree.dtb without looking for a boot.scr even. So unless we can chainload another U-Boot as "uImage" via bootm command with a dummy devicetree.dtb, we can't move the kernel to another partition nor fatload-incompatible filesystem. Andreas P.S.
