We have a plan to 'remote control' barebox..
Would have been good, if i wasn't the first doing this ;)

Well we have UART console and network console, you can use something
like kermit or expect to remote control barebox.

I know this sucks and is not what you wanted to hear, but currently this

I have no good idea how to do this.
