You can do that, too, of  course.  But  allyou  affect  this  way  is
(usually  [*]) the default environment, which gets used if the normal
environment gets corrupted - as long as there is a  valid  copy  this
one will be used, and the default environment will never be used.

As recommended before, you can erase or otherwise invalidate (for
example, just overwrite the checksum entries) the environment to force
using the default environment.


[*] An exceptions is the (not frequently used) configuration  ith  an
    "embedded"  environment  where  the  environment  is  part of the
    U-Boot image itself and will get overwritten when you  install  a
    new image.

Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk
