The cleanest and simplest course would be to use script commands to set up GPIO if it is not already done by the U-Boot code, and set the bootcmd variable to test the GPIO port value on boot and run an internal or tftp boot accordingly.

[U-Boot] using a GPIO to toggle tftp boot mode
I'm hoping to come up with a way to configure a recovery mechanism using uboot. the idea is if the main OS image needs to be reflashed, or for recovery options. what are my options for configuring uboot to use a different set of configuration options based on the state of a GPIO line (button)? thanks! -CG ___ U-Boot mailing list U-Boot@lists.denx.de http://lists.denx.de/mailman/listinfo/u-boot
