In addition to my previous comment (posted on 03/11/2014)

I have also tested with v2014.10 and got the same output as before :

U-Boot SPL 2014.10 (Nov 03 2014 - 15:40:04)
Incorrect magic number (0xffffffff) in EEPROM
Could not get board ID.
Incorrect magic number (0xffffffff) in EEPROM
Could not get board ID.
Unknown board: assuming BeagleBone Black.Incorrect magic number 
(0xffffffff) in EEPROM
Could not get board ID.

I am getting these logs in every 1 minute(approx) in my FTDI Output.
