They should be separate, since there are situations where you just want the RCW and not the PBL image loading -- but it should all be an automatic part of the U-Boot bulid process for targets that require it. -Scott _______________________________________________ U-Boot mailing list U-Boot@lists.denx.de http://lists.denx.de/mailman/listinfo/u-boot
