BTW, I use a small SDCard with only a 100MB fat partition and I only have MLO, u-boot.img and uEnv.txt files present. Everything else gets loaded from my TFTP server and then I mount an NFS rootfs.

Very fast turnaround because I don¹t have to program SDCards or flash eMMC. Regards, John > > > So searching these groups for "John Syn" and uEnv.txt may yield working > results for you.
