[U-Boot] Assigning u-boot environment variables from memory

[U-Boot] Assigning u-boot environment variables from memory

[brendan]

I am storing some information regarding my board within EEPROM (in memory
after I use the >eeprom read command) and I was wondering if it was possible
for me to somehow read from memory and store the values into an environment
variable.

I have done a search but could not find anything of relevance.  

Thanks

That's what the "env import" command was made for (supporting
different import formats, like plain text, binary with or without
checksum).

You might look at "env import ..." command.

It should do what you need. Please also pay attention to its switches
-r| -t ... etc.
