Hi all

I have a custom board use nand flash to booting, we try to put the uboot env file(uEnv.txt) into mtd

I have some question about this step

1. did I need to convert the uboot env file format(.bin) or just use .txt file? if so, how can I do?

2. can I use default uboot env and my env.txt at the same time? I mean, if I didn't define the ipaddr in default env, can I define it in uEnv.txt and the other operation used in default?

many thanks!

Ans: No need to convert. Please refer processors.wiki.ti.com/.../AM335x_U-Boot_User's_Guide

2. can I use default uboot env and my env.txt at the same time? I mean, if I didn't define the ipaddr in default env, can I define it in uEnv.txt and the other operation used in default?
Ans: You can try just setting ipaddr in your env.txt and then as per point 1, you can apply the env from the txt file and check.
