From 8d51aacd8cd99adb9e58933951602c4f43e90aa1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Simon Glass Date: Tue, 16 Jul 2013 20:10:00 -0700 Subject: RFC: bootm: Add silent_linux environment variable At present the console for linux is silent if the U-Boot console is silent, unless CONFIG_SILENT_U_BOOT_ONLY is set. I wonder if a better way would be to have an environment variable to control this? Then we can control the verbosity from scripts, and set the variable to 'no' for those boards that want Linux to boot with console output.
