[U-Boot] Uboot can't start kernel after change from version 2009.01 to 2010.09

[Maik Hänig]

Dear Reinhard,

sorry I copied the wrong log:

U-Boot 2010.09 (Jan 24 2011 - 17:45:54)

Starting kernel ...

I have to kernel Images in flash. The bootcmd is copied from printenv. 
With the uboot version 2009.01 it works well. Is it nessesary to set a 
console parameter in the bootcmd in uboot version 2010.09?


Mit freundlichen Grüßen
