This program boots an i.MX or Vybrid system using a copy of U-Boot
transferred to the system over an OTG or UART connection. It can be
used to "unbrick" a system which has a corrupted or missing copy of
U-Boot in nonvolatile media such as nand flash or eeprom. i.MX systems
use the OTG port, Vybrid systems use the UART port.
To use this, connect the OTG port of your i.MX board to a USB host
port on your computer, power on the board, then run imx_usb <filename>
where filename is the board-specific u-boot.imx file to boot with.
Remove WWW entries moved into port Makefiles
Commit b7f05445c00f has added WWW entries to port Makefiles based on
WWW: lines in pkg-descr files.
This commit removes the WWW: lines of moved-over URLs from these
pkg-descr files.
Approved by: portmgr (tcberner)
Add WWW entries to port Makefiles
It has been common practice to have one or more URLs at the end of the
ports' pkg-descr files, one per line and prefixed with "WWW:". These
URLs should point at a project website or other relevant resources.
Access to these URLs required processing of the pkg-descr files, and
they have often become stale over time. If more than one such URL was
present in a pkg-descr file, only the first one was tarnsfered into
the port INDEX, but for many ports only the last line did contain the
port specific URL to further information.
There have been several proposals to make a project URL available as
a macro in the ports' Makefiles, over time.
