Andrew, in this v1, the two .dts files are still separate w/o any common .dtsi. I took a quick look it seems there are small differences between the two which make me wonder if its worth the trouble: - DS414 fans are not handled by the SoC - various pinctrl variations - a tiny difference in SPI flash partitioning - phy-mode for ethernet interfaces - different comments associated w/ same nodes (e.g. uart1) - etcO.K, lets wait for the moment. It could be that there is more in common between different 370 devices, and between different XP devices, but less in common across 370 and XP. We can refactor it later when a pattern starts to appear.
ok.

- Added a comment in the .dts file about the bootloader screwing the kernel if the environment is saved.Is this well know in the forums? Do you think Synology knows about it? It would be nice if it was fixed. Maybe not for these products, but for the next generation.
I never went to synology forum to check if someone had broken her NAS doing a saveenv under u-boot. But I doubt that: doing a 'synology saveenv' search on google gives DS213j .dts submission (with the comment on the issue) as 10th link. If you have some contact to provide, I can report it.
