   A quick (and somewhat uncomprehending) look at github suggests   
   the effect is confined to the Pi4 and Pi5.   
      
   I was wondering if rpi-eeprom might also effect part of the   
   boot process on older Raspberry Pi boards. Not strictly eeprom   
   code, but maybe extending to the DOS materials like bootcode.bin.   
   It's understood there's no hardware equivalence, but there might   
   be some functional equivalence.   
      
   Thanks for writing,
