I looked around at this a bit this morning. cmd_pxe.c would need a lot of mangling to pass around cmdtp, just for the sake of an error message that's then ignored as the caller logic is: 1) Try bootm on the image 2) If CONFIG_CMD_BOOTZ, if bootm returned, maybe we got a zImage? do_bootz instead (also NULL cmdtp). The error message wouldn't exactly make sense here either, being invoked via menu. -- Tom
