Hello Bing, Edison?! Edison is dead (end), as I know it... The project is cancelled. Correct me if I am wrong! Much more important INTEL U-Boot businesses are ATOM E3900/APL-I family and CORE-5 BDW-DE (possible also BDW-DE NS), What about these? Thank you, Zoran Stojsavljevic

But my understanding is that these are pretty much Intel Tangier SoC related, and Edison is just a reference board. > Much more important INTEL U-Boot businesses are ATOM E3900/APL-I family and > CORE-5 BDW-DE (possible also BDW-DE NS), > > What about these? > As I mentioned before, these are on my todo list. If you or anyone else would like to contribute, patches are always welcome! Regards, Bin

Some people don't think so, there are ones who like the board. Actually, while working for Linux kernel at Intel I'm using that board on almost daily basis to do many tests which are not related strictly to Edison or even Tangier. > > The project is cancelled. That's correct [1]. But be honest, don't you like the idea to have an example of the board, which was never designed to be ACPI compatible, actually to become one (as much as hardware and ACPI specification allow to, of course)? Besides that I have started looking into Edison's stuff around spring time of 2015. You may see my progress here [2] (first article dated 27.03.2015, the chapter "6 What is working and what doesn't" shows progress of upstreaming). U-Boot was appeared on my radar when the stock one stopped working with vanilla kernels. > > Correct me if I am wrong! See above. > I don't know that story. Loop Andy in to comment.

Edison is one of the Intel's IoT boards, but the only board from Intel MID family [3]. > > Much more important INTEL U-Boot businesses are ATOM E3900/APL-I > > family and > > CORE-5 BDW-DE (possible also BDW-DE NS), > > > > What about these? I can't answer on this. Work on Edison stuff may be considered as my hobby project (I have never been a part of an official team which had done Edison).
