With "menu" I mean env menucmd. U-Boot run command stored in env menucmd after
preboot and before monitor loop. For example in menucmd can be my bootmenu,
but there are no problems - no broken code! My bootmenu clear screan and show
menu, so anything printed before menu entries will be deleted. This is not bug
- Also in Grub or LILO is debug/output log cleaned when showing menu entries.
