I have to decide to use what?
U-Boot PRU Options 

With v4.4.x-ti PRU via remoteproc can be enabled by: 

uboot_overlay_pru=/lib/firmware/AM335X-PRU-RPROC-4-4-TI-00A0.dtbo

With mainline (boneX) PRU via uio (doesn't work with v4.9.x-ti yet) 

uboot_overlay_pru=/lib/firmware/AM335X-PRU-UIO-00A0.dtbo

Think that's the key point, there are many possibilities, but only one specific
combination works. To find out which one it is .... makes not so much fun.

Is somewhere an updated roadmap available, e.g.
1.) image to load
2.) if required, packages to load on top of that
3.) system setup ( I mean hardware, not user, network etc )

I expect many people are trying to use beaglebone for "real time" applications,
I'm not the first and only one :-)
Up to now I used µP and FPGA's for that kind of applications .... and I spent 
not so much nights on that.

Thanks for help
Kasimir
