My apologies about the delay. I have been swamped with the kernel and other
projects. I kept at this a little though, mainly trying to address the elf2flt
issue which seems to generate unworkable binaries for Peter, while it is always
working for me... Really no clue what is going on so I am a little stuck with
that. I will work on updates addressing all of Peter's comments and see how
that work.

OK.

Hmm... It is the same procedure for all boards, only the defconfig name
differs. Hence I added this README file last with all board defconfigs
mentioned. I can add the README file with the first board and update it with
each patch adding a board ?
