Sorry for not replying earlier - just wanted to thank you for bringing the 
good news! :)

Just keep in mind, that support for Pandaboard in meta-ti falls under the

product and adapted to OE/Yocto. Don't get discouraged if something is broken 
or is not fully supported. And of course, patches are always welcome! :)
