AIS is a format used to package an image which is to be copied to the memory to be run. The format consists of a series of commands which are parsed and executed by the RBL(primary boot loader) to get the image copied to the memory, and then jump to the image's entry point(also specified as part of the format). I will add more info on this in the document, as you suggest. > > > * hawkboard_uart_config - This is same as the first image, but with > > the TEXT_BASE as expected by the RBL(0xc1080000).

Will add this to the readme. -sughosh _______________________________________________ U-Boot mailing list U-Boot@lists.denx.de http://lists.denx.de/mailman/listinfo/u-boot
