Hello,
I am looking for information on how to boot Linux with a device tree.

Basically, I have a  uImage and a device tree(dtb) and with U-boot I 
used to do:
bootm uImage_address -- dtb_address

How does it work with barebox?

Cheers,
Renaud

which architecture do you work on ARM/PPC?

on Arm  I'm working on Mutli uImage support but I've not yet add the DTB
support

but you need to understand that on Barebox we do not use address but file
and in the case of the multi image index

Best Regards,
J.

As Jean-Christophe pointed out the architecture is important. On
Arm we do not have devicetree support in any official tree, but
I already have patches.

Thanks.
It would be for a ppc.

I am evaluating barebox on a mpc8544.

In this case it's bootm -o /some/blob /some/uImage

Note that this is likely to change in the near future as I'm working
on oftree support for ARM and will integrate libfdt then.

Can you share your experience with running Barebox on this e500 based chip?  
Have you added anything to the generic arch/ppc/ code?

I'm currently working with an e500 based chip (P1011), so I'm very much 
interested in your experience.
