So, due to the shear number of *.dtb files, i haven't implemented a
direct "emmc-overlay" specific for the bbbw.

Instead, i've implemented something newer, utilizing U-Boot overlays.

First check what version of U-Boot you have installed via:

debian@test-bbb-1:~$ cd /opt/scripts/
debian@test-bbb-1:/opt/scripts$ git pull

Next take a look at this document:

http://elinux.org/Beagleboard:BeagleBone_Debian_Image_Migration#U-Boot_Overlays

to implement "dtb=am335x-boneblack-emmc-overlay.dtb" for the bbbw use
these options in /boot/uEnv.txt

enable_uboot_overlays=1
disable_uboot_overlay_video=1

(make sure you don't have a /uEnv.txt file as that isn't implemented
with this new method)
