Please document and sign-off-by on patches (using git style). Why is this needed, is it going upstream?

The custom sf.net mirror shouldn't be part of this defconfig.

Why an external toolchain?

Why udev?

We don't have an xloader package in BR yet. I haven't followed pandaboard development recently - Has xloader development stabilized, and is there a single well-defined upstream?

Hi,

All this work is based on this tutorial : http://www.elinux.org/Panda_How_to_kernel_new

As it's based on a well known tutorial, I've supposed that it's already known by upstream project. And I've done a quickly patch and I wait that upstream u-boot report this change.

I've done a new release of this patch in git format.

yes, I remove it in the new defconfig.

simply because it's was faster to compile.

It's requested by the pandaboard (see the link at the beginning of the answer).

I've sent a patch to add x-loader, thomas has replied.
This patch (pandaboard support) depends on the former one (x-loader support).

I send a new release of the patch for the pandaboard support.

Regards,
Philippe
