U-Boot loader for BeagleBone and BeagleBone Black.
To install this bootloader, copy the files MLO and bb-uboot.img to the FAT
partition on an SD card or the eMMC. Normally this is partition 1, but
different partitions can be set with U-Boot environment variables.
This version is patched so that:
* ELF and API features are enabled.
* The default environment is trimmed to just what's needed to boot.
* The saveenv command writes to the file uboot.env on the FAT partition.
* The DTB file name is chosen based on the board model and passed to ubldr
using the fdtfile env variable. ubldr loads the DTB from /boot/dtb/ on
the FreeBSD partition.
* By default, it loads ELF ubldr from file bbubldr on the FAT partition
to address 0x88000000, and launches it.
Note: prefixing the boot files with 'bb' allows building
images with boot bits for more than one board.
