Slightly off topic - but there's one annoying thing when you just build
our uImage. The linaro default .config has these options as modules:
CONFIG_NLS_CODEPAGE_437=m
CONFIG_NLS_ISO8859_1=m
This means you can't update the kernel on your target device because you
can't mount /dev/mmcblk0p1. When testing kernel changes, I like to run a
script on the device that will grab a new uImage, copy it to
/dev/mmcblk0p1, and reboot.
