I was informed that the following is invoked by U-Boot:

env import -t -r $loadaddr $filesize 

I'm not sure what the flags do and have so far been unable to find 
documentation for them. But I believe this is acting on an environment that 
has been loaded in a previous command. 

What is the previous step to load this? In other words, where is U-Boot 
looking for the uEnv.txt?

The Partition 2.0 document 
<http://elinux.org/Beagleboard:U-boot_partitioning_layout_2.0#uEnv.txt_Boot_Partition_.2FuEnv.txt>
 was 
vague (to me) on this point. Probably makes sense in some context.

It isn't clear to me from this page 
<https://eewiki.net/display/linuxonarm/BeagleBone+Black#BeagleBoneBlack-SetupmicroSDcard>
 
either. It seems to imply that it will search for it on /boot of the root 
filesystem. My one and only bootable partition is EXT4 so it would require 
calling ext4load (I believe). The output is trying to do something with the 
MMC but never finds what it is looking for. I'm not sure which image it is 
trying to load. Surprised there isn't a message somewhere saying "Trying to 
load environment" or "Trying to load Kernel" or whatever.

Using U-Boot 2017.01.
