What do you mean? What other way is there to boot an image at present? The same thing happens with PXE, for example today, although I have sent a series to start to change that. The idea here is that to boot something on U-Boot you use 'bootflow scan -b' and everything happens automatically. In all cases (at present) this involves running commands, whether it is bootm, bootefi, etc. > > Best regards > > Heinrich > > > > > Signed-off-by: Simon Glass <s...@chromium.org> > > --- [..] Regards, Simon
