Unless I'm mistaken, the tftp protocol does not support file listing.

We are successfully loading FIT images of > ~26 MByte via tftp 
(containing Kernel, FPGA and Initrd) without problems.

> If kernelimage is larger than ~20MB loading file hangs...tried setting blocksize, but it's the same behaviour, only more/less #-symbols. I don't know how much data is loaded, because there is loadedbytes-counter (i only can count the # and multiply with blocksize if i know it). do i have any chance to debug that or is this already known/fixed?
