Dear "sywang",

If the system panics, you must not assume that there is any working
code left that is capable of writing to flash memory.

I told you before that there is no U-Boot code available anywhere once
Linux started execution.

You may look into the shared log buffer feature - if Linux dumps it's
log messages into it's log buffer, this information can be picked up
by U-Boot from there, and even passed on to the next booting Linux
kernel.
