If you only add a new board, this is very easy and doesn't require a lot 
of work. Maybe
if you want to support particular peripherals that are not included in 
u-boot support you must
write codes. A good starting point is a board that is quite similar to 
your board and try to
support the console first and the relocation process (so the sdram). 
When the console and the
relocation code are ok, you are quite near the end.

I think the best information is the code and the mailing list and all 
the documentation that
you can find in denx site.
