Hi,

I had totally other plans in life but saw Mark here never giving up with the Pi, what is quite cool :-)
2 possibilities:
When you as an FreeBSD lead tell us: Start to get the best out of the Pi, start to come up with e.g. a first driver step,
than we should consider this u-boot - discussion as a lite warm up :-)
When you say: Give it up, I also will give up thinking about this device.
A while ago I saw a video discussion between you and Patrick Wildt about  the Wifi-driver he developed,
we could start there to port that driver , perhaps without using linuxkpi, just as an example.

Cannot speak for Mark&Bob but I think he/they also would be willing to work on better useful results for the Pi,
it would be too much hassle for me alone.

Thanks,

Regards

Klaus
