[U-Boot-Users] How to recover kernel and root file system if it crashes

Hi All,

I have couple of questions

If kernel and / or root file system gets corrupted on target due to
one of the following reasons

1, power cycle
2, bad crc ,
3,bitmask
4,,incorrect inode

 or any other issues /similar errors



At this point of time i can do CRC check of the kernel  image  before
it boots up.

If the CRC is bad or image header is bad i am loading secondary kernel image.

How can we recover incase of root file system failure?

How do we let uboot know that the root file system didn't  come up properly.


What should be the solution ?
