common/console.c has this function:

I have defined CONFIG_SILENT_CONSOLE and set "silent" in my NAND env, but the SILENT flag doesn't get set.
I suspect this function is called way too early for NAND env to be available.
NAND isnt the only one with this problem (SPI does too last i looked). during early boot, you only have the default env available. so if you want silent console, i'd suggest you enable that in your default env. -mike
Yes, that's what I intend to do, I think, though I'd have liked it to be configurable at run time.
Try enabling CONFIG_NAND_ENV_DST to have the environment be loaded by the SPL along with the main U-Boot image. You didn't say what board/chip you're using, so if you're using something other than the common nand_boot.c you may need to add support for this (it's just a couple lines), and silence any output from the SPL itself.

Thanks Scott,
That's interesting. I'm using a TI board (da830evm). Unfortunately it has its own UBL, so I don't have the SPL to configure that way.
That might be a good reason to consider dropping the UBL though. I believe TI are moving to U-Boot SPL themselves.
I'll add it to my TODO list.
Thanks, Nick.
