it's not that muhc a question of u-boot, but a question of what is in your environment partition (stdin/stdout/stderr). Ideally somebody should write a small script that utilizes dfu-util and envedit.pl from devirginator to 1) read out the existing u-boot_env partition using dfu upload 2) modify the stdin/stderr/stdout settings to use usbtty 3) re-upload the u-boot_env partition using dfu download It's actually a pretty straight-forward task. If somebody wanted to volunteer to work on this, please don't do unless you have a debug board for resurrection during testing ;) Using such a script, it would be easy to Later on, that script could be further developed into something like a 'neo1973 environment sanitizer' which goes through the environment and sets all settings to reasonable defaults. It could even support an interactive mode where you can (on the host pc, operating ont he environment partition copy) use printenv/setenv/saveenv statements.
