Hi Denys,

With this patch applied and the updated README I can boot a Beaglebone
Black (rev A6) with a default yocto image/config (I've used
core-image-sato-sdk FWIW). Everything seems fine, I ran a bunch of tests
on the image, except for X - it doesn't start :(.
I've built with fbdev and omapfb too.

X log for fbdev:

for omapfb:

Is there anything else that needs to changed/added? I could add a
xorg.conf on the image too, but then it beats the point...

Cheers,
Stefan
