So if I just remove all the normal stuff? What about all the reset16 and entry16 stuff? Looks to me like I pretty much have to re-write my MB config.lb
no, not at all. It's the target/bitworks/richard/Config.lb that determines normal/fallback or fallback-only configuration, and that in turn will drive how the thing gets built
Since you haven't really said specificlly what you don't like about in-tree builds I say what I do like. Having everything under one roof make it much easier for me to just take a snapshot of things. CVS is great but there are still loads of time when I'ts just more of a hassle. Sweet and simple. I can't tell you how many times I've had to go back to a snapshot and snag a binary that I wasn't able to reproduce due do some wierdness going on. Or just as a sanity check when wierdness is going on.
good point. The only reason I like seperate trees is that if things get too weird I like to rm -rf freebios cvs blah blah co freebios and not affect any of my targets. That's all.
My original point was though that it would be nice from a new board porters view if there was some kind of reference payload for each known good board and it was included.
good point.
