NAK. This would be a serious error, and silently ignoring this is
downright wrong.
If such a situation should ever happen, it must cause a fatal error.
I agree.
Could you please explain which exact problem you are trying to fix?
I have to admit that I cannot think of a usage szenario that would
lead to such an error.
I had an error (typo) in my predefined environment. Basically I had this:
#define CONFIG_EXTRA_ENV_SETTINGS \
"key" "\0" "=value" "\0"
It would be nice if U-Boot told me that there was something wrong with
my environment rather than just hang.
Thanks,
Lucian
