[U-Boot-Users] 1.3.0-rc1 rootpath not set

[Marc Leeman]

Below you'll see the verbatim output of the serial line; but the setup
basically is this:

The config file of the board defines a bad default value for rootpath
and bootfile; these values should be retrieved from the dhcp reply. In
the 1.2.0 bootloader, this is done correctly, in the 1.3.0-rc1; the
bootfile is set correctly, but the rootpath fails.

This is the output of 1.2.0

This is the output for the 1.3.0-rc1 (the version tag is still wrong).
