AM335x EVM boot-mode switch (SW3) wrong labelled

I would like to outline that boot-mode DIP switch on AM335x EVM (SW3) is labelled in a the wrong way, that means:

SW3[1] = ON ---> SYSBOOT[0] = 0

SW3[1] = OFF ---> SYSBOOT[0] = 1

This is also clarified in U-Boot and StarterWare user guides, which IMHO are not the best places for an EVM HW detail.

Yes, the labelling on the switches is incorrect. The correct labelling is as specified in the U-Boot user guide http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/AM335x_U-Boot_User%27s_Guide#Boot_Switch_Settings.

The reason for putting them here is that almost everyone will be following these two documents for getting started.

Thanks,

Yes, they are quite good places, but I would suggest an EVM User Guide.

I did not find any such a document, neither in the wiki. I think it would be really useful.
