redirect stdout

[Thibaut Dambry]

Thank you for your answer

I would use the eeprom to change linux bootargs parameters.
So the best way is to create a command isUsbDevice (where I read eeprom 
value and return 0 if OK )
and add this in a boot shell script:

#!/bin/sh
isUsbDevice
if [ $? -ne 0 ]; then
     bootargs="$bootargs pcm043_otg_mode=host"
else
     bootargs="$bootargs pcm043_otg_mode=device"
fi
