U-Boot with direct NVMe boot support for eMMC/SPI Flash
#56
I think many of us need to wait on flashing the SPI. With the same U-Boot software working on an eMMC or SD card, their is little advantage at present to flash it to SPI. Yet, quite a bit of risk of soft-bricking.

Ideally, we would see a more functional firmware image, (U-Boot or other), that supported device selection through display & keyboard, in addition to customizable default boot device. I think that's what I will wait for before I look to using the SPI device.
