Good idea! To use an already existing and "official" kernel will save time, add credibility and transparency. The link to the mentioned page of FSF Latin America is: https://www.fsfla.org/ikiwiki/selibre/linux-libre/ With any non-Chip-kernel you will lose NAND support. So you can either: a)patch your libre kernel or b) ignore NAND and use flash memory via usb port. For b) you will need mainline U-Boot because NextThings U-Boot fork supports NAND but not booting via usb.
