Do you know the context (directory) in which the patch will be applied?

Will it be from the root of the U-Boot tree and patch
	board/boundary/nitrogen6x/6x_bootscript.txt
	board/boundary/nitrogen6x/6x_upgrade.txt

Or will it be applied somewhere in the work directory?

Also, the 6x_upgrade script is useless unless we copy u-boot.imx
into one of the partitions. Should it go into the FAT partition or
the ext3 partition?

Please advise,


Eric
