Well, unfortunately it's not that easy. You will have to call make with
a board configuration as parameter. Please read the README.

To do this you will have to port U-Boot to your hardware. Please note
that support for x86 is kind of weak so far. Take a look at "cpu/i386"
and grep for CONFIG_X86. Beware, this is really a nontrivial task -
probably not the easiest way to become acquainted with U-Boot.
