Dear "Lv Terry-R65388",

Please stop top posting / full quoting.

This style of replying to messages ios a major PITA to deal with :-(

I think you either did not read or understand what I wrote:

I was talking about a more generic support layer for block oriented
storage devices. In Unix, this is typically called a "block device",
but we probably don't have to go that far.

What are all these env_*.c files doing? Reading or writing one or
several blocks of data from a storage device and handing it over to
the environment code.

Maybe we can use a single generic file where each used driver
registers it's block read / block write functions?

Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk
