That was the basic mistake I think. I was trying to write to a non 32 bit aligned address. This got solved, but I have some new errors saying this ## Error: environment overflow, "stdin" deleted ## Error: environment overflow, "stdout" deleted ## Error: environment overflow, "stderr" deleted ## Error: environment overflow, "bootcount" deleted Does that mean the size allocated for env is smaller compared to the actual contents in env file. I am new to u-boot. Can you give some pointers on this? regards -Nitin > > Cheers > Detlev > > -- > Q: What do you get when you cross an elephant and a > banana? > A: |elephant| * |banana| * sin(theta) > -- > DENX Software Engineering GmbH, MD: > Wolfgang Denk & Detlev Zundel > HRB 165235 Munich, Office: Kirchenstr.5, D-82194 > Groebenzell, Germany > Phone: (+49)-8142-66989-40 Fax: (+49)-8142-66989-80 Email: > d...@denx.de > New Email addresses available on Yahoo!
