Hi Matt,
After using 'linaro-media-create' from older branch (bzr branch 
lp:linaro-image-tools -r 169) I was able to create boot images. 

Thanks for your help.

Hi Praveen,

I can recreate the same failure you are seeing.  Something is
broken in the linaro-media-create that is being installed with:

sudo apt-get install linaro-image-tools ...

The first thing I see is the hwpack isn't installing correctly
and so probably the rootfs isn't installing either.

Using an older branch of linaro-media-create I was able to
create a bootable system:

bzr branch lp:linaro-image-tools -r 169

Also, the vexpress is usually installed to 2 devices.  The
boot system to the SD card and rootfs on a USB device.  The
rootfs on an SD card is really slow.
