for instance, compare the bin/ directories. there are a number of additional executables in the BSP iso directory than there are in the savannah one -- utilities such as checkmd5, spit_profile and others.
i can read here: http://www.bitshrine.org/autodocs/LtibFaq.html that:"LTIB is available either as iso images from Freescale or in CVS format from savannah
"The iso images have the advantage that they are self-contained, the packages for the target are pre-built and they also have more BSP specific documentation."
that makes some sense, except that some of the utilities seem to be clearly BSP-independent, so i'm just curious as to why they're not in the stock savannah tarball download but are in the BSP image.
rdayp.s. by the way, the ltib-6.2.2-sv.tar.gz tarball you can get from savannah still has the CVS directories in it, which is kind of non-standard.
