Hi Everyone,
    I am getting my XM tomorrow and I am trying to figure out how the
XM software software setup differs from the previous Beagleboards.
That way I can quickly get to making custom rootfs for my projects. I
have read that there is a new u-boot. Has that been pushed to the
mainstream git repository? What is the back story on the bootscript?
What other changes are there? Thanks!

Colin,

all the software is here:
http://www.angstrom-distribution.org/demo/beagleboard/

All XM-necessary patches are in the mainline of git repository.

Hi Maxim,

via tftp, seems XM have ethernet interface in HW now.

It has been done, but no one has submitted patches to the mainline.
Let me know if you are aware of someone interested in working on that
so that we can share work-to-date.

Good work. I am very interested in the function, which is very helpful
to do development on XM. Hope it merged into uboot git repository ASAP.

thanks,

Which git tree to we use to find the u-boot changes that support the
PHY to get tftp working?

I thought I read where you already did it! I was searching your
sakoman patches looking for it!
