It would probably be good to put that somewhere in the Barebox
documentation. Generally, I think some per-board documentation is
lacking in Barebox on how to set up Barebox on each particular
platform, especially with regard to the first stage bootloaders that
are often needed on a number of platforms.

And yes, I know, I should be sending a patch augmenting the
documentation with this :)

Thanks,

Thomas
