Hi Alex,
> The new "boot_android" command simply executes the Android Bootloader
> flow. This receives the location (interface, dev, partition) of the

I'm just wondering if it would be possible to modify/extend 'bootm'
command to boot this android image instead of introducing two extra
commands - namely "load_android" and "boot_android"?
Then we could use "load" command to load the android image as is and
then bootm, which would recognize it (I suppose that android image
header allows this) and boot?
Best regards,
