Hi,
Is existing a way to globally disable some features such as ethernet
or Nand support, instead of doing it for a specific board?
Other than recompiling, is it possible to disable Ethernet through
environment settings? At our
work, we often need Ethernet only during development,

Why would compiled in Network support slow down the boot process?
The network interface will only be initialized as soon as you use it.
If you don't have one, then you probably will not try using it - then
why would it delay your boot?

Do you have CONFIG_RESET_PHY_R defined? It forces a call to eth_init(),
which most likely causes the delay you're seeing. Try commenting it out
in your config file.
Yes, CONFIG_RESET_PHY_R is defined by default. And I can see it linking to
the eth_init and then
Dear Jesus Alvarez
The AT91 Linux kernel patches for versions 2.6.27 or later use a separate
atmel_nand.c driver that implements some OOB and ECC options that are not
exactly the same as those in the standard kernel NAND driver (nand_base.c ,
etc.). AT91 based boards can use the

But in the later releases, this feature was no longer supported. So my

You cannot write to the caller's buffer
Currently, the nand_util.c does not manipulate NAND flash page by page.
It's the nand_base.c provides that level of NAND control.
Implementing this properly requires changes to the existing structure.
Also, adding +length syntax means command interface change as well.

1) The nand_util.c does not have WATCHDOG_RESET() in the

nand_write_opts() and nand_read_opts() do. Is there a special reason

You can use U-boot to write the file to NAND as well. The address does
not matter as long
as your bootcmd is reading the kernel from the same address.
Please check your U-boot environment settings and your nand dump of the

In the lcd_putc() of common/lcd.c, line 189 handles tab '\t'. And the
following lines:
console_col |= 8;
console_col = ~7;
seems to have problems. If console_col is 9, it will become 8 after the
above two lines, which means instead of tab of 8 spaces, it goes back
1.
Is this a catch 22? If console is initialized after loading environment
variables, this
means NAND (or other memories) driver are loaded before console being
available
and there is no console output to debug NAND driver initialization. If
console is
initialized before loading NAND driver,

Dear all,
What is the use of nand erase clean? According to the source code, it
erases the NAND block and also writes the jffs2 cleanmarker to OOB
session. Is this necessary to write a jffs2 file system?

Hi,
I think bad blocks are less likely to happen near the first block, which
is guaranteed to be good. It may be possible to find NAND chip that
guarantee more blocks but I have not encountered one myself.
U-boot has the code to skip bad block when reading environment. As

In the common/env_nand.c, function env_relocate_spec (for

If it hits line 308 when both environment areas not found, it will
