Makes sense. That's what semi-all commands do in U-Boot.

I did not only describe it, I tested it. I just "tricked" a bit.
You asked to extract the last two digits, and I used "% 100" to do
this. Note that this works correctly in any number base - may it be 10
or 16 or whatever :-)

Hey, that was clever, wasn't it? :-)

Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk
