u-boot-with-spl.bin needs to be manually dd'd at the correct offset to install. That is available as part of the u-boot-arm package and includes the device tree. Ethernet still needs a hostname.dwge0 along the lines of !ifconfig \$if down !ifconfig \$if up dhcp cpu scaling isn't done yet and it runs slower than it could. Seems to be running at 500 MHz if my reading of the clock registers was right.
