New Uboot for Sam460/AmigaOne 500
We did a new Uboot for Sam460/AmigaOne 500 because it was possible and our Amigan customers will appreciate it (we hope).
The new version called 2015.a (Uboot versioning) has the following features:
- new redesigned GUI with an 'amiga' style, enabled via Menu->Video Options->Console->Silent
- unified support for Sam460ex and Sam460cr boards
- support for USB EHCI, now booting from a SD card is very fast
- better support for USB devices
- removed 2 GB limit for USB sticks
- better compatibility with newer Radeon HD graphic cards
- introduced a new menu entry to change the x86 gfx BIOS emulator accuracy. If your graphic card
show some visual problems on startup, try increasing the x86 BIOS emulator accuracy
- new DDR2 boost settings: read, write, read + write (up to 5% speed increase on reads and up to
10% on writes)
- DDR2 boost setup done from a new menu entry
- added support for old Permedia2 graphic cards, for 'history' reasons :-)
- added 'ping' command
- corrected a bug in the serial port GPIO configuration
