[meta-freescale] Getting Started With A New freescale / NXP LS1021-TWR

[Bob Cochran]

Hi Tom,

Yes, I can get an LS1021A-TWR-PB to boot Linux and also run CodeWarrior 
using all master branches.   I'm doing a fresh build now and can 
re-confirm this a little later.

Which repo are you using for meta-freescale and linux-qoriq?

I think using github.com/Freescale/meta-freescale.git will give workable 
results now.

There are older versions of the Tower board with earlier (rev 1 ) 
silicon.  I have one of these, but it's on the shelf.

Bob
