PATCH 4/4 imx233_olinuxino: readme: Remove a section
In reply to Fabio EstevamAfter the conversion to the common genimage scripts, the uImage.imx23-olinuxino file no longer exists.
Instead of updating the section, let's simply remove it as the more standard method of using sdcard.img is already explained.
This also makes the readme more consistent with the other i.MX readme files.
