So . . .

So . . .

Tells me this can be cross compiled. I can not speak for this set of
scripts yet, as I have not used them. But I've used other similar scripts
from Robert, and they will generally pull in most, if not all requirements
for you. Sometimes, you may have to apt-get install <something> but Roberts
scripts generally tell you when it hits this wall.

The command line argument probably won't work.But the only way you'll know
for sure is if you try it. A lot of those cmdline args are x86 specific,
and if they are ARM compatible, many times they won't work. The only one
I've personally had success with thus far is ipv6.disable, the rest( maybe
2-3 others ) did not work for me, and one after reading I found out was an
x86 compatible cmdline arg anyhow.

optargs is general the place to put cmdline arguments into your uEnv.txt
file. That is on older kernels. The newer 4.x kernels, well the images they
come with have a first and second stage uEnv.txt file, where it's best to
edit the cmdline variable in the second stage uEnv.txt file. Whether or not
if it works . . . you'll have to figure that out by trial and error I'm
thinking.
