I have tried to update the board code accordingly but stumbled upon another
problem. The size of barebox increased to 0x40bb7 so I changed the
partition definitions in pcm043.c as follows:

#define CONFIG_MX35_BBSIZE      0x42000
   ...
   devfs_add_partition("nor0", 0x00000, CONFIG_MX35_BBSIZE, PARTITION_FIXED, "self0"); /* ourself */
   devfs_add_partition("nor0", CONFIG_MX35_BBSIZE, 0x20000, PARTITION_FIXED, "env0");
   ...
Barebox boots OK but after having saved the environment (saveenv) it dow not boot anymore.

Barebox boot messages ...

Malloc space: 0x86e00000 -> 0x87dfffff (size 16 MB)
Stack space : 0x86df8000 -> 0x86e00000 (size 32 kB)
envfs: wrong magic on /dev/env0

devinfo <== What is defined ?
...
`---- cfi_flash0
     `---- 0x00000000-0x01ffffff: /dev/nor0
     `---- 0x00000000-0x00041fff: /dev/self0
     `---- 0x00042000-0x0005ffff: /dev/env0

saveenv  <== save the environment
reset    <== nothing after here

What is wrong here?
