How to get started with the MinnowBoard (MAX)
=============================================

1. Build

  Apply the defconfig:

  $ make minnowboard_defconfig

  Or, for the Minnowboard MAX board:

  $ make minnowboard_max_defconfig

  Add any additional packages required and build:

  $ make

2. Write the SD card

  The build process will create a SD card image in output/images.
  Write the image to an mSD card, insert into the MinnowBoard
  and power the board on.

  $ dd if=output/images/sdcard.img of=/dev/mmcblk0; sync

  The system starts two consoles: one on the serial port
  and one on HDMI.

3. Enjoy

board/minnowboard: Unify Minnowboard and Minnowboard MAX boards Given Minnowboard and Minnowboard MAX boards are very similar, it's desirable to unify the support for them. This commit does the following: 1) Remove Minnowboard MAX's genimage.cfg, post-build.sh and post-image.sh. These are identical to Minnowboard's. 2) Move Minnowboard MAX's linux config, and rename it. It would be lovely to have a single kernel config file. The kernel size penalty involved in adding support for all the peripherals on both boards is small enough to justify this. However, the original Minnowboard has some GPIO buttons that need to be registered by the kernel. This is not upstreamed, and hence we need to use the yocto v3.8 kernel to have this support. 3) Rename each grub config to grub-{board}.cfg. 4) Modify (the now unique) post-build script to use a different grub config, according to the board. 5) Update both defconfigs, as per the above changes. 6) Finally, update the readme.txt.

trivial: fix typo 'informations' In English, unlike in French, almost all usages of the word 'information' are uncountable, meaning that 'informations' is invalid.
