+- CONFIG_SYS_GENERIC_BOARD
+ This selects the architecture-generic board system instead of the
+ architecture-specific board files. It is intended to move boards
+ to this new framework over time. Defining this will disable the
+ arch/foo/lib/board.c file and use common/board_f.c and
+ common/board_r.c instead. To use this option your architecture

+ its config.mk file). If you find problems enabling this option on
+ your board please report the problem and send patches!
