So at the moment I can't find the information on doozan.com, but it is 
there. For some reason cloud engines used a custom CRC algorithm to 
verify the integrity of the uboot environment variables. This has not 
been up streamed and is not in the version of uboot-utils that is 
shipped with fedora. The update uboot provided by doozan.com keeps this 
CRC method intact, I believe as a compatibility reason.

This is 6 month old memory though. I just know that at the time I took 
this very seriously and put the warning in the Fedora PogoPlug docs.
