Hi,

I've added an option similar to the  netretry=no environment option  
which allows a script to control the retry operation for networking.   
This option controls a retry operation for bootm.  Here is the README  
entry:

+- CONFIG_RETURN_FROM_BOOTM
+
+		Return from the bootm command instead of rebooting.  This
+		is useful for setting up multiple boot image options in a
+		script.  It allows the script to control the retry
+		operation.  For example, these scripts setup a system that
+		will attempt a primary flash image, then a backup image
+		location, then resort to TFTP:
+		  "boot_tftp=dhcp 3c0;bootm 3c0;reset\0" /* if fails, reset */ \
+		  "boot_flash=bootm ff050000 3c0;bootm ffc00000 3c0;run  
boot_tftp;reset\0"


CHANGELOG:

Added CONFIG_RETURN_FROM_BOOTM to control retry operation of bootm  
command.
