Hello Wolfgang,
> ...but your new code has new issues, too.
Nothing is perfect... Making this code perfect would require a
complete rewrite... ;-)
The (original) code is buggy too, because I have discovered a strange
bug which is causing me quite some headaches last week... ;-)
(I have a usb stick here which shows different contents in U-boot than
on Linux/Windows, U-boot shows the contents that was on the stick a
long time ago, and what it reads is even valid...)
At least formatting/whitespaces/tabs is better now.
Long indentations and similar code has been moved into separate
routines and so on.

No, I just reordered a strange construction, by moved a piece of code
that could only be reached by goto to a label to the place where the
goto was listed.
This made the code more readable. To me this is still just coding style.
> Please submit as two separate patches.
There are a few little things that could be put into a separate patch.
I will see what I can do...
Kind regards,
Remy
