X-Git-Tag: 24jan2021_ls180~183 X-Git-Url: https://git.libre-soc.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=653edd17ca87fe5443053bda07db8fd56b2ebb44;p=litex.git bios/boot: simplify flashboot (remove specific linux boot). Storage in SPI Flash is generally limited and booting Linux from it is no longer very useful since boot from SDCard is now supported. This is in the continuity of the SDCard/Ethernet simplications to have an easier and more flexible boot scheme. --- diff --git a/litex/soc/software/bios/boot.c b/litex/soc/software/bios/boot.c index 257aaa07..47426b62 100644 --- a/litex/soc/software/bios/boot.c +++ b/litex/soc/software/bios/boot.c @@ -392,16 +392,6 @@ void netboot(void) #ifdef FLASH_BOOT_ADDRESS -/* On systems with external SDRAM we copy out of the SPI flash into the SDRAM - before running, as it is faster.
