I took a very quick look at their U-Boot repositories and hardware
schematics.  The problem looks like they are missing the ID EEPROM for
the BeagleBone (there is an EEPROM, but it's at the wrong address) and
while it's mostly a BeagleBone Black, there's some stuff that has to
change (like there's only 512MB of memory).

The set of changes for their "uboot-for-machinekit" repo is pretty
minimal and basically forces the EEPROM detection routines to return
the right values for the BBP:

I think if this U-Boot is actually functional (I'm not sure if they
ever tested it) you could probably build a working uSD image with the
updated U-Boot and a stock kernel (although you might need some
device-tree tweaks).

I've got too much other stuff going on to mess with this right now,
but you might find someone on the BeagleBoard group willing to help
out (or who's maybe even gotten things working already).  I'm pretty
sure most of the folks with a BBP aren't using Machinekit, so would be
more likely to be hanging out on the Beagle list.
