bootargs="console=ttymxc0,115200" -****/ I believe this causes certain scripting in ptxdist to fail "~>ptxdist test setenv<cr>" since it is setting up uboot configuration for Robert S.'s machine. It does not actually "hurt" u-boot-v2 rc7 since the knowledgeable user will make this go away for his board.

The automatic setup scripts in OSELAS.BSPs using this board should do the right thing, the 'test setenv' script will push a well defined environment into the box.

Likely the community would be better served if there was a comment as the following:

#really make sure this points to the nfs root source. Assuming the BSP was at the user home. ~> nfsroot="/OSELAS.BSP-Phytec-phyCORE-8/projectroot"

It may be useful to fix this as a question to the user.//

Yes, good idea, please send a proper patch that fixes all of these issues.
