Well I compiled and installed a kernel with CONFIG_KERNEL_IN_FIRMWARE=n but then my beaglebone was not detected through the USB and did not connect to my network via ethernet. I ended up just going back to the method of echo <overlay> > $SLOTS with the default kernel 3.8 with a fresh archlinuxarm install. I noticed 3.19 says it has device tree overlay support, do you know of any documentation showing how to load device tree overlays in 3.19?
