On uboot loading, I checking a specific environement (called consoleddev), to decide to rediect console to nc or staying in serial. I then see some strange behaviour: if the environment tell uboot to redirect to net console, everything works well, but only if the ethernet cable is connected. if it is not connected then I see that the kernel is not loading.

there could easily be a bug where netconsole does not work if the network is not available. patches welcome to add timeouts. -mike
