Software Configuration:
=======================
- NETWORK Support (other):
+ CONFIG_DRIVER_AT91EMAC
+ Support for AT91RM9200 EMAC.
+
+ CONFIG_RMII
+ Define this to use reduced MII inteface
+
+ CONFIG_DRIVER_AT91EMAC_QUIET
+ If this defined, the driver is quiet.
+ The driver doen't show link status messages.
+
CONFIG_DRIVER_LAN91C96
Support for SMSC's LAN91C96 chips.
images, gzipped BMP images can be displayed via the
splashscreen support or the bmp command.
+- Run length encoded BMP image (RLE8) support: CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_RLE8
+
+ If this option is set, 8-bit RLE compressed BMP images
+ can be displayed via the splashscreen support or the
+ bmp command.

- Compression support:

to run and CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SLAVE to be the address of this node (ie
the CPU's i2c node address).
- Now, the u-boot i2c code for the mpc8xx (cpu/mpc8xx/i2c.c)
- sets the CPU up as a master node and so its address should
- therefore be cleared to 0 (See, eg, MPC823e User's Manual
- p.16-473). So, set CONFIG_SYS_I2C_SLAVE to 0.

CONFIG_SYS_I2C_INIT_MPC5XXX
custom i2c_init_board() routine in boards/xxx/board.c
is run early in the boot sequence.
+ CONFIG_SYS_I2C_BOARD_LATE_INIT
+
+ An alternative to CONFIG_SYS_I2C_INIT_BOARD. If this option is
+ defined a custom i2c_board_late_init() routine in
+ boards/xxx/board.c is run AFTER the operations in i2c_init()
+ is completed. This callpoint can be used to unreset i2c bus
+ using CPU i2c controller register accesses for CPUs whose i2c
+ controller provide such a method. It is called at the end of
+ i2c_init() to allow i2c_init operations to setup the i2c bus
+ controller on the CPU (e.g. setting bus speed & slave address).
+
CONFIG_I2CFAST (PPC405GP|PPC405EP only)
This option enables configuration of bi_iic_fast[] flags

- CONFIG_SYS_EEPROM_SIZE:
The size in bytes of the EEPROM device.
+ - CONFIG_ENV_EEPROM_IS_ON_I2C
+ define this, if you have I2C and SPI activated, and your
+ EEPROM, which holds the environment, is on the I2C bus.
+
+ - CONFIG_I2C_ENV_EEPROM_BUS
+ if you have an Environment on an EEPROM reached over
+ I2C muxes, you can define here, how to reach this
+ EEPROM. For example:
+
+ #define CONFIG_I2C_ENV_EEPROM_BUS "pca9547:70:d\0"
+
+ EEPROM which holds the environment, is reached over
+ a pca9547 i2c mux with address 0x70, channel 3.
- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_DATAFLASH:
CONFIG_SYS_PCI_MSTR_MEMIO_SIZE, CONFIG_SYS_POCMR1_MASK_ATTRIB, CONFIG_SYS_PCI_MSTR_IO_LOCAL,
CONFIG_SYS_PCI_MSTR_IO_BUS, CONFIG_SYS_CPU_PCI_IO_START, CONFIG_SYS_PCI_MSTR_IO_SIZE,

- Overrides the default PCI memory map in cpu/mpc8260/pci.c if set.
+ Overrides the default PCI memory map in arch/powerpc/cpu/mpc8260/pci.c if set.
- CONFIG_PCI_DISABLE_PCIE:
Disable PCI-Express on systems where it is supported but not
working with an in-memory copy. In case the Flash area containing the
environment is erased by accident, a default environment is provided.

either succeed or fail without retrying.
When set to "once" the network operation will

tftpdstport - If this is set, the value is used for TFTP's UDP
destination port instead of the Well Know Port 69.
- vlan - When set to a value < 4095 the traffic over
+ tftpblocksize - Block size to use for TFTP transfers; if not set,
+ we use the TFTP server's default block size
+
+ tftptimeout - Retransmission timeout for TFTP packets (in milli-
+ seconds, minimum value is 1000 = 1 second). Defines
+ when a packet is considered to be lost so it has to
+ be retransmitted. The default is 5000 = 5 seconds.
+ Lowering this value may make downloads succeed
+ faster in networks with high packet loss rates or
+ with unreliable TFTP servers.
+
+ vlan - When set to a value < 4095 the traffic over
Ethernet is encapsulated/received over 802.1q
VLAN tagged frames.
o If neither SROM nor the environment contain a MAC address, an error
is raised.
+If Ethernet drivers implement the 'write_hwaddr' function, valid MAC addresses
+will be programmed into hardware as part of the initialization process. This
+may be skipped by setting the appropriate 'ethmacskip' environment variable.
+The naming convention is as follows:
+"ethmacskip" (=>eth0), "eth1macskip" (=>eth1) etc.
