Purpose of 'localboot'

[Simon Glass]

Hi,

The documentation on this feature[1] doesn't quite explain how the
system should actually do a localboot. Is this for BIOS / x86 only?
There was a recent discussion about this on the U-Boot mailing
list[2].

Is someone able to help with how / if this should be implemented in U-Boot?

Regards,
Simon
