* **Yocto Update**: Update to 5.0 (Scarthgap).

* **OSPI Partitions in Device Tree**: Defining OSPI flash partitions directly in the device tree.

**Issues Fixed**
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

* **Poweroff Fix**: The board now shuts down properly without triggering a reset via the watchdog.
* **R5F Firmware Restart**: Fixed issues with restarting the M4F firmware.
* **Bootloader via Ethernet**: Booting the bootloader through Ethernet is now functional.

**Known Issues**
