On a related topic (firmware upgrade), I have:
https://gitorious.org/embedded-linux-firmware-upgrade-tool/embedded-linux-firmware-upgrade-tool

It has a:

 * A host utility to prepare firmware images composed of multiple parts
   (usually a kernel image + root filesystem image, but there could be
   more)

 * A target utility that can run either on the command line or as a CGI
   script. This utility does the firmware upgrade itself by fiddling
   with the U-Boot environment.

The tool assumes that the flash has two partitions for each component
been upgraded (one active partition, one to upgrade).

The documentation at
https://gitorious.org/embedded-linux-firmware-upgrade-tool/embedded-linux-firmware-upgrade-tool/blobs/master/fwupgrade-doc.txt
has a few details.

Best regards,

Thomas
