Michał Łyszczek f82bd2c9df configs/socrates_cyclone5: new defconfig
Configuration contains:
  - building uboot (and spl) from altera's github
  - booting from SD card
  - working ethernet, serial, i2c, fpga_manager
  - minimal rootfs with busybox
  - ready to flash SD card image

Creating bootable SD card
=========================
Simply invoke
dd if=output/images/sdcard.img of=/dev/sdX
Where X is your SD card device (not partition)
Booting
=======
Pins 6:8 on P18 selector is used to determine boot device. To boot socrates from
sdcard set these pins to value 0x5 (101b). Remaining pins are used to determine
how to configure FPGA and are not associated with booting into Linux kernel.
