Ah! Here you can see that the CRC is incorrect in U-Boot already, so why do you expect to see a different result when using fw_printenv?
WHen the CRC _is_ incorrect, both U-Boot and fw_printenv will report this fact in the same way.
The message is printed because the flash sector or ERPROM containing the environment variables has never been initialized yet. The message will go away as soon as you save the envrionment variables using the |*saveenv*| command.
*Print message after execution of saveenv command from uboot :

I have no idea what sort of code you might be using there, there is no such file as 'sflash.c' in the mainline U-Boot code.
sflash.c is flash driver code . I showed you the print message of savenev to note that it is erasing 0xad030000 - 0xad03ffff. That means environment variables are placed in the mentioned sector(0xad030000 - 0xad03ffff). Actual address of environment variables is 0xad03f000, which is last 4Kb of 64KB sector. If this is the case what should be the DEVICE_OFFSET? ENV_SIZE?
Using the latest u-boot will be quite time consuming. Please help!!!
Thanks Rahanesh
