DM6446 is quite different from OMAP-L138. Both AM180x and DA850 are j= ust
derivatives of OMAP-L138.

Anyway, DM6446 is no longer supported, as it's a very old platform.

Hey Denys,

Wow, I wasn't expecting support to be dropped. =A0I= 9;m sure there is still a bunch of people using it. =A0I guess I could mayb= e maintain it if someone would give pointers on how to go about it.

OK, so how about this ... I use the same u-boot and ker= nel that I'm currently using (but built with the same toolchain to buil= d the rootfs ... meta-toolchain) but use am180x-evm to build the rootfs &am= p; packages of other stuff I need? =A0I mainly need to have the packages ke= pt relatively up to date (security patches etc.).=A0

Do you see anything wrong with that approach? =A0Same A= BI right?

Brian<= /div>
