+- CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_FAT:
+       Define this if you want to use the FAT file system for the environment.

+       - FAT_ENV_INTERFACE:

+         Define this to a string that is the name of the block device.

+       - FAT_ENV_DEV_AND_PART:
+
+         Define this to a string to specify the partition of the device. It can
+         be as following:
+
+           "D:P", "D:0", "D", "D:" or "D:auto" (D, P are integers. And P >= 1)
