Oh, sorry, tbot-denx requires latest tbot from the development branch.
I'll add this to the README.

This is intended, because the `Board` is lab-specific (it contains power and
console commands which are very lab specific ...).  If you want a dual lab setup,
I'd suggest something along the lines of

	class DenxMira(denx.Board):
	    name = "phymira"
	    lab_name = "pollux"

	class YourMira(augsburg.Board):
	    name = "mira"
	    lab_name = "augsburg"

	if tbot.selectable.LabHost.name == "pollux":
	    BOARD = DenxMira
	elif tbot.selectable.LabHost.name = "augsburg":
	    BOARD = YourMira
	else:
	    raise Exception("lab not supported")

I know this is not ideal and I already have some experimental changes to tbot
for a better system in the future.  I will update tbot-denx and a planned
reference/example repo to reflect these changes once they are upstream ...

The config issue we can see here is very important to be solved right, which is
why I am hesitant to rush a solution that might need to be changed again in the
future.  Although I will push a proposal to a new branch as soon as possible so
you can give feedback if it covers all cases you need ...
