So you're obviously not using the newest version of U-Boot, what you
should. Make sure to read the updated README in tools/env/.

Is this in /etc/ ?

Probably some mismatch between the information in your config file and
the real environment. Where is you're environment located in flash? Is
your mtd partitioning right? What does 

$ cat /proc/mtd

show?

Weird. I would guess your MTD partitioning is wrong.
