  just to establish a foundation here, this is the result of booting
from the SD card that came with the board from logicpd:

  and it does boot successfully (well, after i added the touchscreen
from one of my other kits). but clearly there's a build that works.
now all i have to do is figure out how to get the same result with
yocto and the meta-ti layer.
