Re: [ptxdist] [PATCH 2/2] u-boot: Allow generation of boot script

[Denis OSTERLAND <denis.osterland@diehl.com>]

Hi Alexander,

we have one use-case were we generate the environment binary from
compiled in environment.
We have never polished it for pxtdist upstream.
https://www.mail-archive.com/ptxdist@pengutronix.de/msg13604.html
We have polished it for buildroot, but that never got merged.
