Does the current shipping Netstix contain the latest U-Boot to support Compact Flash? Is the bootcmd already set to look for gumstix-factory.script on a Compact Flash? I want to avoid having to take the extra step of setting this up since the Netstix only comes with Compact Flash. In my opinion, it should be ready out of the box to boot an image and filesystem off of the Compact Flash. If both of these questions are not true for the current shipping Netstix, is there a plan to do it and when? ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- --- dsuh ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- --- |

I have a patch which is being tested now which does this. It will be committed to the buildroot in the next few days, and will be in the next flash image which will go onto gumstix manufactured probably starting with our November build, ie for sale starting around the end of november (plus or minus leftover October inventory which will get shipped out first).
