Using the new env import command it is possible to use plain text files instead of script-images. Plain text files are much easier to handle.
E.g. If your boot.scr contains the following:
setenv dvimode 1024x768-16@60 run loaduimage run mmcboot
you could create a file named uEnv.txt and use that instead of boot.scr:
dvimode=1024x768-16@60 uenvcmd=run loaduimage; run mmcboot
The variable uenvcmd (if existent) will be executed (using run) after uEnv.txt was loaded. If uenvcmd doesn't exist the default boot sequence will be started, therefore you could just use
dvimode=1024x768-16@60
as uEnv.txt because loaduimage and mmcboot is part of the default boot sequence.
For backwards compatibility the use of boot.scr is still supported.
Changes for v2:
- Eliminated else redundant clause that would be ignored if boot succeeds.
Changes for v3:
- Removed boot.scr per discussion with Alexander.
