I'm unsure what to do about that. I understand this patch is needed to
get the system working at all, untill we find a permanent solution.
Right?

So you want me to apply this even though we agree it's not a nice
chance?

Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk

Yeah...I'm unsure myself. The system will boot, but the 'saveenv'
command doesn't work...so while I really want to fix this issue
_properly_, I'm not sure if there's enough time to do that before the
next release.

If the 2009.08 release is around the corner, I would appreciate if you
applied it before making the release.

Did you test loading something from JFFS2? I have a bad feeling it
might still be broken.

Right. Does anyone have any clue about why it's broken?

Trying to do ls just hangs the bootloader.

U-Boot> ls
Scanning JFFS2 FS:   

I did not dig into the code, but I think the discussion about the same
