This may cause to crash the OS during boot. So the USB 41_MUST_ be stopped during OS boot. This is the reason, why the USB is 42NOT automatically started during start-up. If someone needs the USB 43he has to start it and should therefore be aware that he had to stop 44it before booting the OS. 45 46For USB keyboards this can be done by a script which is automatically 47started after the U-Boot is up and running. To boot an OS with a an 48USB keyboard another script is necessary, which first disables the 49USB and then executes the boot command. If the boot command fails, 50the script can reenable the USB kbd. 51 52Common USB Commands: 53- usb start: 54- usb reset: (re)starts the USB. All USB devices will be 55 initialized and a device tree is build for them. 56- usb tree: shows all USB devices in a tree like display 57- usb info [dev]: shows all USB infos of the device dev, or of all 58 the devices 59- usb stop [f]: stops the USB. If f==1 the USB will also stop if 60 an USB keyboard is assigned as stdin. The stdin 61 is then switched to serial input. 62Storage USB Commands: 63- usb scan: scans the USB for storage devices.The USB must be 64 running for this command (usb start) 65- usb device [dev]: show or set current USB staorage device 66- usb part [dev]: print partition table of one or all USB storage 67 devices 68- usb read addr blk# cnt: 69 read `cnt' blocks starting at block `blk#'to 70 memory address `addr' 71- usbboot addr dev:part: 72 boot from USB device 73 74Config Switches: 75---------------- 76CFG_CMD_USB enables basic USB support and the usb command 77CONFIG_USB_UHCI defines the lowlevel part.A lowlevel part must be defined if 78 using CFG_CMD_USB 79CONFIG_USB_KEYBOARD enables the USB Keyboard 80CONFIG_USB_STORAGE enables the USB storage devices 81
