17 Linux kernel. The purpose of the following list is to document a complete list
20 Note: U-Boot supports two methods of booting a PowerPC Linux kernel: old way,
22 kernel is passed a pointer to the FDT. The boot method is indicated for each
51 Ad. 2. Boot kernel image located at <addr1>.
55 kernel and a ramdisk, respectively. The kernel is booted with initrd loaded
61 		    |	   (kernel, initrd) | (kernel, initrd, fdt) |
66 Ad. 4. Similar to case 3, but the kernel is booted without initrd.  Second
70 Ad. 5. Boot kernel image located at <addr1> with initrd loaded with ramdisk
74 Ad. 6. <addr1> is the address of a kernel image, <addr2> is the address of a
79 Ad. 7. <addr1> is the address of a kernel image and <addr3> is the address of
88 Ad. 9. Similar to case 2: boot kernel stored in <subimg1> from the image at
96 Ad. 11. Equivalent to case 5: boot kernel stored in <subimg1> from the image
101 Ad. 12. Equivalent to case 6: boot kernel stored in <subimg1> from the image
107 of FDT binary blob that is to be passed to the kernel.
110 Ad. 14. Equivalent to case 7: boot kernel stored in <subimg1> from the image
116 of the FDT binary blob that is to be passed to the kernel.
141 - boot kernel "kernel-1" stored in a new uImage located at 200000:
142 bootm 200000:kernel-1
151 - boot "kernel-1" from a new uImage at 200000 with initrd "ramdisk-2" found in
153 bootm 200000:kernel-1 800000:ramdisk-2
155 - boot "kernel-2" from a new uImage at 200000, with initrd "ramdisk-1" and FDT
157 bootm 200000:kernel-1 800000:ramdisk-1 800000:fdt-1
159 - boot kernel "kernel-2" with initrd "ramdisk-2", both stored in a new uImage
161 bootm 200000:kernel-2 200000:ramdisk-2 600000
163 - boot kernel "kernel-2" from new uImage at 200000 with FDT "fdt-1" from the
165 bootm 200000:kernel-2 - 200000:fdt-1
