Hi,

When new drivers are added into Linux Kernel and new board info is added into u-boot to work on customized prototype hardware, clearly from that point on we need to have some way to maintain the version of these new changes.

When bugs do appear in modified u-boot and patched Linux Kernel, we need to know what U-boot and Linux-Kernel are used in the field.

So, firstly, is there any rules to change the Linux Kernel version and U-Boot version for Embedded Linux Device? (Add extra version after kernel version like 2.6.34-0.0.1 or what else? )
Secondly, where do we change the Linux Kernel version and U-Boot version in source files?

Thanks. Hope someone have thought after and got experience on this.


Regards,
Quentin
