UBoot on the ARM LS-Pro - how does it compare to the UBoot that so many of us have flashed our PPC boxes with?

does it have the 1 flash - 2 flash - 3flash  bootup option that lets one choose between EM, rootfs, and normal boot?

U-boot has non-volatile memory to save the current settings
Command is saveenv
This allows your environment variables to persist across power cycles and reboots.
