Hi Stefan,

now that the patches are in the marvell tree and I guess they'll make it
into the next release. Could you apply the following patch, too?

Thanks,

+Important! Changes since v2019.07
+---------------------------------
+In u-boot v2019.07 the driver for the SATA port was changed to a new
+one. This means that the old "ide" command and block interface is not
+supported anymore. More important, the boot commands have changed. You have
+to overwrite the boot commands in your envionment with the new ones:
+
+  env default -f bootcmd_legacy
+  env default -f bootcmd_hdd
+  saveenv
