Masahiro Yamada 93d4334f7f Add board MAINTAINERS files
We have switched to Kconfig and the boards.cfg file is going to
be removed. We have to retrieve the board status and maintainers
information from it.

The MAINTAINERS format as in Linux Kernel would be nice
because we can crib the scripts/get_maintainer.pl script.

After some discussion, we chose to put a MAINTAINERS file under each
board directory, not the top-level one because we want to collect
relevant information for a board into a single place.

TODO:
Modify get_maintainer.pl to scan multiple MAINTAINERS files.

U-Boot for SolidRun Hummingboard
--------------------------------

This file contains information for the port of U-Boot to the Hummingboard.

For more details about Hummingboard, please refer to:
http://imx.solid-run.com/wiki/index.php?title=Carrier-One_Hardware

(Carrier-One was the previous name of Hummingboard).

Building U-boot for Hummingboard
--------------------------------

To build U-Boot for the Hummingboard Solo version:

$ make hummingboard_solo_config
$ make

Flashing U-boot into the SD card
--------------------------------

- After the 'make' command completes, the generated 'u-boot.imx' binary must be
flashed into the SD card:

$ sudo dd if=u-boot.imx of=/dev/mmcblk0 bs=1k seek=1; sync

(Note - the SD card node may vary, so adjust this as needed).

Also, a more detailed explanation on how to format the SD card is available
at doc/README.imximage.

- Insert the micro SD card into the slot located in the bottom of the board

- Connect a 3.3V USB to serial converter cable to the host PC. The MX6 UART
signals are available in the 26 pin connector as shown at:
http://imx.solid-run.com/wiki/index.php?title=Carrier-One_Hardware
(Check for "26 pin header layout").

- Power up the board via USB cable (CON201) and U-boot messages will appear in
the serial console.
