U-boot, git kernel and file system images for Davinci EVM

I've made a set of files for u-bbot, the kernel (built from git) and a root file system for the EVM for the Angstrom distribution (built by OpenEmbedded). They have booted on an EVM. If you use root over NFS you will need to comment out the auto eth0 line in /etc/network/interfaces.

I've used OpenEmbedded to build images for the EVM before. I built glibc images, but it should be possible to create uclibc images also. Unfortunately, I do not have an EVM to test against so I do not keep a set of current images available for download. Philip Brian Niebuhr wrote: Has anyone
