How do I get to the U-boot prompt you show?
Interrupt the process during boot.
I want to know the uboot information when I am logged into my OS.
On ARMv7 your can't, at least currently, because U-Boot doesn't remain
resident to be able to query it. When booting via UEFI you can get
some of the info via various tools. We only have that currently
available on aarchh64.
And I suppose there is no consistent way to dump the content of uboot to
get the string displayed during boot.
Other than to the display or via the command I mentioned above?
Yes. Just wishful thinking on my part and we know what wishful thinking
gets you: nothing.
So I will just work from the basis that all my running Cubies are
running on old uboots and that for them, it does not hurt replacing the
uSD with a more current uboot (all my Cubies ONLY have uboot on the uSD
as all partitions are on the sata drive).
The above provides no details as to what you wish to achieve.
Just to keep the uboot current with the kernel level.
Some boxes are Fedora 28 (still) some are CentOS 7. One Cubieboard2
CentOS system I was working on yesterday was running with the 10-2016
uboot and the F28 below it I suspect has a similarly old uboot. So just
getting around to getting more current on my production systems. That
F28 will be hang in there until F30 ships.
And replacing uboot is easy for me. When I get around to doing it.
Going to be quite a different story with the Odroid, but will be for
CentOS and another list. :)

Is there a command that gets me the uboot information I see displayed on
the serial console at boot time. For example:
U-Boot SPL 2016.09.01 (Oct 19 2016 - 13:46:44)
and
U-Boot 2016.09.01 (Oct 19 2016 - 13:46:44 +0000) Allwinner Technology
thanks
