Dear Haavard,
In message 20080811082818.81187248BF@gemini.denx.de I wrote:
The board will most likely still boot, so the "end user" can use other tools to fix the breakage.
How should he, now that console access is disabled?
Just to give you an example how we handle this in other places:
A similar dangerous operation is changing the console baudrate - if you set it to something your teminal cannot handle you have the same problem. U-Boot tries to prevent this, as it enforces you to actually input something at the new baudrate.
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk
