While updating U-Boot is always an option, the images we make _should_
work with existing firmware. We need to look for better ways to make
the images.

I just tried the Kirkwood image and it didn't work because the 1st
partition is EXT and not FAT. UBoot on my GuruPlug doesn't support
that.
Also note that I suspect I'm also running into a known kernel bug with
the F17 release:
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42680
Unfortunately I don't know if there is a workaround for this, especially
considering that uImage-kirkwood reports that it is not compressed:
/media/boot/uImage-kirkwood: u-boot legacy uImage,
3.4.2-3.fc17.armv5tel.kirkwood, Linux/ARM, OS Kernel Image (Not
compressed), 3291832 bytes, Mon Jun 18 00:58:01 2012, Load Address:
0x00008000, Entry Point: 0x00008000, Header CRC: 0xCDB8004D, Data CRC:
0x6C6E299A
Any ideas?
