fw_setenv not storing parameters (4 replies)

Hi.
I use uboot 2011.5 (or 2012? I have to double check later). I'm booting Debian via USB stick, everything is working fine so far. But there seems to be a problem with UBootEnvVariables: some parameters are ignored, i.e. if I enter /usr/sbin/fw_setenv serverip=172.17.0.3, it's not listed in output of fw_printenv. Thus netconsole is not working. It's weird, because it has been working before I was reflashing uboot during setup of a new USB stick. Furthermore some parameters are accepted and stored, like "/usr/sbin/fw_setenv if_netconsole=ping $serverip" after I entered serverip=172.17.0.3, so it's not a general issue. Is my env flash memory faulty?
