Why isn't "silent" defined as needed in your defualkt environment that gets used when there is no valid environment?
The easiest way is set up everything as needed, or example by including the environment sector(s) with the U-Boot image (i. e. chosing a configuration which uses ENV_IS_EMBEDDED).
Thank you! I believe ENV_IS_EMBEDDED will do what I need. I had based my bsp on sequoia, which did not have this set.
Also, I had a misconception about ENV_IS_EMBEDDED - I had thought it meant that the environment was permanently part of the text segment, which would not be good for me. But after studying the code, I now understand that ENV_IS_EMBEDDED is only for the initial environment.
I would like to withdraw my patch.
I would still like to pursue my proposed "setenv.patch" - that one changes setenv() to return an integer rather than void. If you have any comments on it, please let me know.
Thanks again, Steve
