Need help with systemd using uEnv.txt (4 replies)

I'm having problem booting with systemd using uEnv.txt.
I followed the instructions and installed the latest uboot and Debian kernel and rootfs on my GoFlex Home.
I want to use systemd to boot the box using uEnv.txt. I was able to get "custom_params=init=/bin/systemd" when I printenv custom_params in Netconsole, but it shows "custom_params=" when I fw_printenv custom_params inside Debian.
Any idea?

Here are the outputs
