Here's a snippet of the commands used when the saveenv command runs

0c 00 13 fd 00 | [256B in] [ret 0]
0c 00 13 fe 00 | [256B in] [ret 0]
0c 00 13 ff 00 | [256B in] [ret 0]
Erasing SPI flash...06 | [0B -] [ret 0]
21 | [4B out] [ret 0]
05 | [1B in] [ret 0]
06 | [0B -] [ret 0]
21 | [4B out] [ret 0]
05 | [1B in] [ret 0]
06 | [0B -] [ret 0]
21 | [4B out] [ret 0]
05 | [1B in] [ret 0]

The command sequence for the erase looks correct per the datasheet.
