Hello,
I am a newbie to U-Boot.
I am in the process of trying to load linux on the MPC8266ADS-PCI board. I compiled the u-boot code and flashed it in. The U-Boot comes up. But I am unable to save any of the environmental variables.
What should I be looking for ?? And what are the changes that I should be doing. Please suggest.
Details are as below.

After power on the initial u-boot prompt looks like this: => reset
