RE: [U-Boot-Users] Excluding Env Variable section from the u-boot.bin

12 Jan 2006


      As far as I understood / remember, you can have the
    environment and part of u-boot's code sharing the same
    sector, which makes it at least more difficult to upgrade
    the code using a BDI-like tool which usually works on
    a full-sector basis.

It is *always* possible to update the U-Boot image and keep  the  old
environment settings. Typically all you need for embedded environment
is a simple "saveenv" command.
