I have runnint tbot tests on a BBB [1] ... and yes, currently test
is red = bad ... :-(

Not sure, if it is this patch ...

Last working U-Boot test, see [2]

Sorry, did not looked earlier at it ... I really need to find time
again for my testsetup as at91 based boards also not running currently :-(

Ok, my BBB in the lab is running, also with current U-Boot, but I see

U-Boot 2017.07-rc1-00075-g156d64f (Jun 09 2017 - 05:48:18 +0200)

And my tbot tests breaking when using ethernet! For example:

=> print tbot_cmp_uboot
tbot_cmp_uboot=run cmp_uboot
=> print cmp_uboot
cmp_uboot=tftp ${cmp_addr_r} ${ubfile};cmp.b ${load_addr_r} ${cmp_addr_r} ${filesize}

Total of 1560 byte(s) were the same
=>

So simply load file 'bbb/tbot/u-boot.img' twice with tftp
and compare fails ... but the image boots ...

bye,
Heiko
