Hello u-boot list!

I am using an Eddy-CPU V2.1 from embeddedmodule.com
The u-boot version is 2008.10-rc3:

U-Boot> version
U-Boot 2008.10-rc3 (Sep  3 2009 - 18:30:12)


It is basically an AT91SAM9260 with a complete development kit. I am
running buildroot-2010.08 on it with linux 2.6.34.3. Everything is
working fine and u-boot does the job it should do, except one thing:

If I issue the following command manually, my system gets through to the
login prompt and runs up and healthy:

cp.b ${OS_FLASH} ${OS_SDRAM} ${OS_SIZE}; cp.b ${FileSystem_FLASH}
${FileSystem_SDRAM} ${FS_SIZE}; bootm ${OS_SDRAM} ${FileSystem_SDRAM}

This is as well the content of the bootcmd-variable inside u-boot.

All the variables mentioned in this command are correct in their writing
(case sensitivity) and their content. Everything is ok so far.

If now I power up the board and let it run on its own without manually
issueing the command above, the system boots up to when the login-prompt
should come up (I can even see output of two /etc/init.d-scripts just
before the login-prompt should be there) but in case of having a running
system, the board reboots immediately.

So what is the difference between typing that command manually and
letting it run on its own?

Below is the output of printenv - maybe this could be of use.

Thanks a whole lot for any help in advance,
Dennis
