Uwe reports on IRC that fastboot tries to read some default variables that barebox doesn't define, which triggers host-side error output:
ERROR: fastboot: no such variable: is-logical:kernel Flashing didn't seem impacted though. Referring to the documentation[1], is-logical is related to a number of commands that create/delete/resize logical partitions. We have support for modifying partition tables in barebox, but we don't expose it over Fastboot. Until we do, let's report all partitions as physical partitions, which is the default value. This issue has always existed, but only became apparent once we started returning an error for non-existent variables.
