Hi Bernie,

I did the same kind of build recently (10/15days ago, can't remember), 
and it worked like a charm, the same build (and images) can be used on 
all am335x boards (EVM, BB black/white, etc, but I tested only with the 
EVM and the BB black).

Basically, the bootloader detect the board it is running on and select 
the right DTB for you, cute! ;)
This imply that all DTB files have been installed on /boot of course, 
but you only need one MLO, u-boot and linux image.

Didn't try again since then.

My 2 cents, Chris.
