In fact, I have. I observed this when I was trying to modify the uBoot
environment from the device, in the Debian installer. I wanted to
provide a way to completely do the installation from on the device. But
after my changes, I have seen the problems that you have, so I wrote the
configure-uboot.sh script.

You can still see my work in the debian installer, by running
$ ./install.sh uboot
which runs the code (it is not normally run by ./install.sh all).

If it turns out that the reason was just pure accident (or something),
and not the fact that I was modifying from on the device, we could
enable this and make the Debian installation even easier.

Test reports appreciated!

Greetings,
Joachim
