[U-Boot] U-Boot ram disk

hi list,
Is it possible copy a file from ramdisk address on target machine (U-Boot command line) to host machine. I want to save the linux kernel image saved inside the Nand Flash, to a directory inside my machine. Is it possible???
Thanks, Nuno Cardoso.

Dear Nuno Cardoso,

Your request makes little sense to me.
If the kernel image in stored in NAND flash, then there is no "ramdisk address" for it, first because the kernel is not a ramdisk, and second because NAND flash is a storage device which has things like block numbers or offsets but no such thing as addresses.
"Save ... to a directory" does not work in U-Boot either, as all file system support is read-only.
