Hi Jerry,

Thanks for a quick reply.

I've got a few comments after playing with fdt commands a little bit 
more. They concern the help message of "fdt move", which says:
fdt move   <fdt> <newaddr> <length> - Copy the fdt to <addr>

And the comments are:
- <fdt> -> <addr> (to be in sync with "fdt addr" description)
- <length> -> [<length>]
- Copy the fdt to <addr> -> Copy the fdt to <newaddr>
- to me, it's not clear from the description that this command will make 
the blob at the new location the "active" one.

Does the above make sense? If yes, it might be a good idea to update the 
help message while working on the "fdt set" issue.

Regards,
Bartlomiej
