Bootloader Configuration

    Use these config.txt parameters:

 device_tree=bcm2835.dtb
 device_tree_address=0x100
 kernel_address=0x8000
 disable_commandline_tags=1
 init_uart_baud=115200
 init_uart_clock=3000000
 init_emmc_clock=50000000

Kernel

    Build a kernel from lp0/rpi-linear
    Copy arch/arm/boot/zImage to kernel.img
    Run make dtbs

Device Tree

    Until Issue #24 is completed you need to manually configure the device tree file
        Using ftdput from git://git.jdl.com/software/dtc.git:

 fdtput arch/arm/boot/bcm2835-rpi-b.dtb /system revision 2
 fdtput -t x arch/arm/boot/bcm2835-rpi-b.dtb /system serial 0 0
 fdtput -t hhx arch/arm/boot/bcm2835-rpi-b.dtb /axi/usb/hub/ethernet mac-address 02 00 00 00 00 00
 fdtput arch/arm/boot/bcm2835-rpi-b.dtb /display broadcom,width 1920
 fdtput arch/arm/boot/bcm2835-rpi-b.dtb /display broadcom,height 1200
 fdtput arch/arm/boot/bcm2835-rpi-b.dtb /display broadcom,depth 16
 fdtput -t x arch/arm/boot/bcm2835-rpi-b.dtb /axi/dma broadcom,channels 783c

        If you want to use 192MB instead of the default 128MB:

 (echo -ne "\x00\x00\x00\x00\x0c\x00\x00\x00"; echo -e "\x00\x00\x00\x00\x04\x00\x00\x00") \
 | dd conv=notrunc bs=8 count=2 seek=5 of=arch/arm/boot/bcm2835-rpi-b.dtb

    Copy arch/arm/boot/bcm2835-rpi-b.dtb to bcm2835.dtb
