While looking for a less crappy u-boot for my nexx wt3020 (mediatek mk7620n, not a kirkwood) I found a modded version with webinterface (for recovery purposes, it allows firmware flashing), dhcp server, and things needed for it to work. https://forum.openwrt.org/viewtopic.php?id=54717&p=2

the "original" version of the feature comes from pepe2k's github, that took it from Tp-link (and others) GPLed material https://github.com/pepe2k/u-boot_mod

I thought you would be interested in this, as you can turn your u-boot into a rescue system.

That's nice!

Our u-boot netconsole is also a rescue system. You can already do all of the above with netconsole, which has hush parser command line. However, this sounds nice as you can use a browser. But basically, the functionality is the same.

It's definitely a project for rainy days, after I got other ToDo items out of the way :)
