I've copied a flash image of one board to another one and changed the

of course when I start Uboot now the system says: CRC bad, using default

Now what I would like to do is recalculate that CRC, change it in the
image and then copy it to the second board.
Can anyone tell me how I can calculate the CRC and where it is located.
I already understood that it's a CRC32.

"saveenv". the CRC is the first 4 bytes of the environment and is calculated using the environment.

Hey Mike,

Thanks for your answer.

The saveenv command doesn't work for me because then the default env variables are stored and this is what I want to avoid.

It's already a good thing that I can see that the first 4 bytes really look like the CRC of the environment. So this was really helpfull info. Now you tell me it's calculated using the environment. In the source code I found the env variables crc calculated for a size of ENV_SIZE, but
I was unable to see how it was defined. Do you have more info on this?

Is the environment data (for crc calculation) terminated by a certain char (or sequence of chars) ?

Thanks and regards,

Gerrit
