Thanks for working on this. This README is an item that has been for a
long time on my todo list.

Only "MX28EVK" is enough. I would also add "Only the latest revision
of MX28EVK (rev D) is supported"

Please remove item 4). We have not added NAND support to mx28evk yet.

This can be added later after we add NAND support.

Please add the jumper settings below for the mx28evk:
