I'm not experienced with hx4700 so I can't say anything about any advantage.. With kexecboot you can boot from any media which may be connected to your hx4700 and supported by kernel. Check http://kexecboot.org for details. User alexxy on #kexecboot have hx4700. I'll ask him about his experience. > On Tue, May 24, 2011 at 9:50 PM, Yury Bushmelev <jay4m...@gmail.com> wrote: >> 2011/5/25 Nic Fellows <n...@nicshouse.co.uk>: >> >>> On another tangent, Felipe Navarrete suggests here: >>> http://lists.linuxtogo.org/pipermail/angstrom-distro-users/2010-August/003356.html >>> to use the zImage-kexecboot-2.6.21-hh20-r12-hx4700.bin bootloader, so >>> i downloaded it, flashed it, the bootloader started up and asked me to >>> select which partition to boot (only one option /dev/mtdblock2) by >>> pressing OK/Enter.
