Why not 5? For development, 1 or 3 is often quite short. I've seen
enough cases where connecting to a serial port (for example, through
one of thos @#&^!*y USB devices) eats a major part of that time. And
for production mode when boot times are important you don;t want such
a dealy anyway, not even with 1 or with 3 seconds.

Sorry for my typo. The company name is Technexion.

Not really a problem. I just wondered if there was a good reason to
chose a different location for the environment. BTW - would it not
make sense to enable redundant environment?
Actually I don;t think it is worth keepin the old settings, but that's
just my opinion. Other users might be surprised to lose their whole
environment settings when updating from the vendor provided version to
mainline, so at least a warning should go to the board specific
README.

Indeed this is common code, I see it now. So yes, if we change this,
it should be done as separate patch. I think debug() makes a lot of
sense here to reduce the output at boot time to a reasonable minimum,
but then - is there another way for the user to inquire for this
information. If not, should we add it to the bdinfo output?
Best regards,
