Subject: [PATCH] bootchooser: warn if NV is used instead of barebox-state
Date: Mon, 5 Aug 2024 16:06:32 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20240805140632.1728140-1-a.fatoum@pengutronix.de> (raw)
I can't think of a reason why the environment would be preferable
to barebox-state, except for evaluation perhaps.
Thus warn the user if they configure bootchooser without state.
