Hello,
I am confused about the secondary boot loader and u-boot loader files. My understanding is that MLO is the secondary boot loader and is loaded into memory by the boot ROM. It's purpose is to configure essential hardware in preperation for the user application or u-boot. On the other hand I understand that u-boot.img is the binary for u-boot loader.
After building u-boot I accidently only placed MLO only on the sd-card and to my surprise the system booted. I then earased the sd card, re created the partion and tried agin. The system booted again, therefor since I could repeat this result many times, I came to the conclusion that only MLO is required to boot the device. Is this a good conclusion?
What is the difference between these two files ? Do I need to include them both and if not which one should I use ?
