Ugh, sorry, I was a bit quick on checking with an updated u-boot on this... our tree is *cough* slightly *cough* old and that was the case at the time, but since somewhere in 2020 there is a warning in fs/fs.c in case load fails. That doesn't change the fact that this patch is useful to avoid the message being printed twice, but I'll need to update my scripts anyway to use `size` first instead (as a first approximation of `test -e`) Please let me know if you want me to resend this with an updated commit message; otherwise I'll let this sleep. -- Dominique
