Thanks!  Would it be possible to include in the comments some reference to the 
minimum level
of uboot for which it is applicable?
Sure.


I installed the file in that URL as /etc/fw_env.config and when I run 
fw_printenv, it says
     Warning: Bad CRC, using default environment
and prints only a few lines.  I was expecting to see the many-line printout I 
get when
I do “printenv” in u-boot.

Is this expected behavior?
It is if you're running the default environment and haven't saved your
environment to the mmc (e.g. saveenv from the u-boot prompt).


I’m running uboot version 2015.04+dfsg1-2
That's the right version...


In general I prefer to work with the default environment, as I'm often
testing new u-boot versions and want to make sure it continues to work
with the defaults, and it can be tricky to remember to reset the default
environment.

Thanks for the explanation. I wasn't aware that there were two environments. Is this explained somewhere? I'd love to RTFM if I only knew where the FM was!

I assume, if I do "saveenv" in uboot, that I'll make the two environments equal and see the same thing from fw_printenv in Linux as I do from printenv in u-boot? Is this correct?

...  I tried it and that's what happened.  Thanks!

Enjoy!
Rick
