I don?t define these 2, not sure if it matters.

My config looks like this:

#define MTDIDS_DEFAULT "nand0=xilinx_nand"
#define MTDPARTS_DEFAULT \
	"mtdparts=xilinx_nand:" \
		"128k(fsbl)ro," \
		"11M(u-boot)ro," \

		"-(root)" 
#define CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_UBI
#define CONFIG_ENV_UBI_PART "boot-config"
#define CONFIG_ENV_UBI_VOLUME "u-boot-env1"
#define CONFIG_ENV_UBI_VOLUME_REDUND "u-boot-env2"
#define CONFIG_ENV_SIZE			0x20000

I create volumes like this:

	"writepartitions=" \
		"if ubi part boot-config && " \
			"ubi read $verifyaddr u-boot-env1 1 && " \
			"ubi read $verifyaddr u-boot-env2 1; " \
		"then " \
			"ubi remove bootfs && " \
			"ubi remove config; " \
		"else " \
			"nand erase.part boot-config && " \
			"ubi part boot-config && " \
			"ubi create u-boot-env1 " __stringify(CONFIG_ENV_SIZE) " dynamic && " \
			"ubi create u-boot-env2 " __stringify(CONFIG_ENV_SIZE) " dynamic; " \
		"fi && " \
		"ubi create bootfs " __stringify(CONFIG_BOOTFS_VOLUME_SIZE) " dynamic && " \
		"ubi create config - dynamic && " \
		"if ubi part root && " \
			"ubi read $verifyaddr rootfs 1; " \
		"then " \
			"ubi remove rootfs; " \
		"else " \
			"nand erase.part root && " \
			"ubi part root; " \
		"fi && " \
		"ubi create rootfs - dynamic;\0" \

I also notice that you are not using a redundant env like I am, so maybe there is a bug when not using a redundant env that I don't run into.

This should be no problem ... but you (Kevin) may disable
FASTMAP for a test?

You have 70MB for Env?

@Kevin: you have exactly one PEB for this volume ... may this is the problem?
Can you try it with a Volume, which have more space?

I don;t know.

Hi Joe and Heiko,

I tried disabling the fastmap options, and it appears to be related to 
these.  With fastmap off, I am able two write without corrupting the 
other volume.  It looks like it may specifically be the autoupdate 
feature, but I am still testing to be sure this is the case.  I will let 
you know.

Thank you for your help,
Kevin
