  that sounds vaguely familiar, i remember reading that once upon a
time.  which brings me back to my plaintive lament -- is there a
recipe i can use to build a bootable system for this board?

  the SD card that came with it has "arago" splashed all over it so
i'm going to check out the meta-arago layer(s) to see what i get.  but
i would *dearly* love to figure out what it takes to build a working
system for this in the next day or two.

  don't make me beg.  all right, i'm begging ...
