Dear Ben,

Jerry Van Baren already showed you an elegant way to solve this using scanf().

Is scanf() available in u-boot? I couldn't find it.

I think he meant sscanf(), which should be there.

No, we don't have this yet in U-Boot.

But that's a small problem - as long as we just need to parse for an expression like "eth\d*addr" we can easily do this with ten lines of C or so.

If we find we might need sscanf() more often, we might een go as far and borrow some 200+ lines of code for Linux (i.e., from "lib/vsprintf.c") :-)
