How to access uboot environment variables from Linux?

[atul.sabharwal at exgate.tek.com]

I think you will have to write a program to access and decode u-boot
environment setup format in linux.

If you come across some open source app for this, plz. share with me. It
should be a standard method

but typically a small optimization if you want your main code to be
independent of the boot loader

your are using or if you have common code base which works across
multiple processors/multiple loaders.

All,

How could I access the uboot environment variables from Linux? For
example I would like to access the "serverip"

and change that to a different ip address during run time.

 

Many thanks in advance,

Bizhan
