Well, the majority of GTA04 users does not even have a serial cable or RS232
adapter for their GTA04. And you have to open the case to connect the cable.
So this is more work than searching an unused microsd.

I think the simpler things have been integrated and missing is the dfu support
from
http://git.goldelico.com/?p=gta04-uboot.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/work/kemnade/dfu_spl
Is this mature/stable enough to test it?
At the moment I am still blocked by testing and debugging the reworked
Letux-Debian
repository (to make it handle packages for different Debian releases properly).
