Hmmm - perhaps "Secondary" would be more accurate wording than "Alternate" (v2 coming...)

Maybe we need additional gpt subcommand for restore gpt in case when backup of gpt header is valid?
Actually we have only "gpt write" command but it needs proper environment variables. So I think that "gpt restore" is welcome.
Thank you,
Agree -- maybe I can find time to work on a "gpt restore" in the near future.... Thanks, Steve _______________________________________________ U-Boot mailing list U-Boot@lists.denx.de http://lists.denx.de/mailman/listinfo/u-boot
