Using the new env import command it is possible to use plain text files instead
of script-images. Plain text files are much easier to handle.

E.g. If your boot.scr contains the following:
-----------------------------------
setenv dvimode 1024x768-16@60
run loaduimage
run mmcboot
-----------------------------------
you could create a file named uEnv.txt and use that instead of boot.scr:
-----------------------------------
dvimode=1024x768-16@60
uenvcmd=run loaduimage; run mmcboot
-----------------------------------
The variable uenvcmd (if existent) will be executed (using run) after uEnv.txt
was loaded. If uenvcmd doesn't exist the default boot sequence will be started,
therefore you could just use
-----------------------------------
dvimode=1024x768-16@60
-----------------------------------
as uEnv.txt because loaduimage and mmcboot is part of the default boot sequence.
---
Changes for v2:
  - Eliminated else redundant clause that would be ignored if boot
    succeeds.

Changes for v3:
  - Removed boot.scr

Changes for v4:
  - Removed comment about boot.scr being supported.

Hello Jason,

I've just seen a patch which makes env import optional, so you might 
consider adding CONFIG_CMD_IMPORTENV to omap3_beagle.h to be prepared 
when env import will get optional.

Regards,

Alexander Holler

Sorry for the noise, the patch which makes it optional enables it by 
default, so no action is necessary. Haven't seen that at first.

Dear Alexander Holler,

I disagree.  CONFIG_CMD_IMPORTENV shall be enabled by default.

Best regards,
