10 years agoQuestion: yocto boot loader vs boot loader from altera bsp-edtori
Hello all,
Any advantages of making use of the u-boot from bsp-editor vs the one from yocto own build? when i read the diagram from rocketboard. for Cyclone V , it showed the -uboot with yocto build. but i remember we still can build from the embedded shell. right? See this. http://rocketboards.org/foswiki/view/documentation/avcvgsrd150 From User 123455 Replies

I would say best part is I can do more customization with yocto0boot version.. incase for new comer, the predesigned u-boot from bsp-editor is a entry choice...~

for me i rather go for yocto as more level of customization than the pre-build version. and most up to date example design are come with custom modification.

Both should works. Some might choose U-Boot from bsp-editor as it was available when building Preloader.

hi, i read some article some said uboot from yocto sometime may exceed the limit 256k, is that true?

there are a lot of additional option you can configure with the yocto uboot, where it is more hassle free when you use the one from bsp-editor as s starter. I believe it is sufficient for normal user .
