[U-Boot] [PATCH] wandboard: Set default environment to use zImage

[Wolfgang Denk]

Dear Otavio Salvador,

happy new year...

This statement makes no sense.  If you use the old legacy uImage
format (which is deprecated, and should be replaced by FIT images),
you specify the entry point address to the kernel, and the load
address (i. e. where in RAM the image should be placed).  These two
parameters to themkimage commansd are registered in the image, and
they are in no way related to any U-Boot environment variables, nor
can any environment variable settings influence these.

Of course you should make sure that memory area where you dowenload
the image does not overlap the area where it gets unpacked / copied
to, but the same issues exist with zImage files.


Please fix the commit message to describe correctly what you want to
acchieve.

Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk
