Sorry, I meant `fastboot getvar all`. Sample output:

  (bootloader) version: 0.4
  (bootloader) bootloader-version: barebox-2023.09.0-myversion
  (bootloader) max-download-size: 8388608
  (bootloader) partition-size:fit: 04000000
  (bootloader) partition-type:fit: basic
  (bootloader) partition-size:bbu-eMMC: e2000000
  (bootloader) partition-type:bbu-eMMC: basic
  all: 
  Finished. Total time: 0.023s

The fastboot partitions that can be used with fastboot flash
are "fit" and "bbu-eMMC".

Cheers,
Ahmad
