-- Pre-console putc():
- Prior to the console being initialised, console output is
- normally silently discarded. This can be annoying if a
- panic() happens in this time.
-
- If the CONFIG_PRE_CONSOLE_PUTC option is defined, then
- U-Boot will call board_pre_console_putc() for each output
- character in this case, This function should try to output
- the character if possible, perhaps on all available UARTs
- (it will need to do this directly, since the console code
- is not functional yet). Note that if the panic happens
- early enough, then it is possible that board_init_f()
- (or even arch_cpu_init() on ARM) has not been called yet.
- You should init all clocks, GPIOs, etc. that are needed
- to get the character out. Baud rates will need to default
- to something sensible.

+Booting the Linux zImage:
+-------------------------
+
+On some platforms, it's possible to boot Linux zImage. This is done
+using the "bootz" command. The syntax of "bootz" command is the same
+as the syntax of "bootm" command.
+
+Note, defining the CONFIG_SUPPORT_INITRD_RAW allows user to supply
+kernel with raw initrd images. The syntax is slightly different, the
+address of the initrd must be augmented by it's size, in the following
+format: "<initrd addres>:<initrd size>".
