[U-Boot-Users] question of "flattened device tree"

[xiangguo_li at hotmail.com]

hello,

under U-Boot, some board configuration files contain "flattened device tree"
elements, such as "OF_CPU", "OF_STDOUT_PATH", etc. while in booting Linux, a
separate file dtb is used.

if both are used, what's the relationship about them?

thanks.
