get rid of -auto stuff ? #85

Open hpeyerl opened 9 years ago

hpeyerl commented 9 years ago

Just a thought... Maybe get rid of sta-auto* and telnet-autostart because it can be done in $bootcmd?

nekromant commented 9 years ago

Agreed, will clean up as soon as I get my hands on it, and we still need a working bootdelay.

I can submit some changes that you can merge at your convenience... I haven't been following along, what's up with bootdelay?

nekromant commented 9 years ago

Same thing uboot does. In short - timeout before bootcmd is executed. If a user hits a button - we drop to prompt without executing bootcmd. Use case: Imagine there's something in bootcmd that screws up things and causes an exception. Without a delay - there's no way to fix it but reflash.

oh I see.. As in "we don't have one"... :)
