Showroom: Daylight hacking with Vocore GPIO

Hi,

this is the first setup of daylight simulation inspired by the "hack your sleep" movement:

I just had one problem: I wrote the startup script (/etc/rc.common file) in a way it does not stop (because I did not background it). So boot is stuck in an endless loop with lamp blinking. Neither Wifi nor ethernet is initialized so I don't have any access on my vocore. Should I solder the UART pins to it? Is this a way to get back the control over my vocore?

One way is to flash a new firmware through uboot(tftp or kermit), details can be find in wiki.
Or connect UART and kill the dead loop.
