I have now access to a mini2440 at Pengutronix. I will add this feature soon.

We need some kind of management here, because the mini2440 comes with NOR and 
NAND flash. And both can be configured to boot the system from: We need a 
location to store the environment. Maybe in NOR, when booting from NOR, and 
in NAND, when booting form NAND? Or only one single location where to store 
the environment, independent from the boot source? Ideas?
