Hi Tom,

I've got one of these shield things  - it is a seriously cool piece of
hardware. I've have to read a bit about what is it for.

So, any idea where to find a UART and recovery button?

Regards,
Simon

If anyone has ideas on how to generate a hybrid 32-bit (AVP)/64-bit (A57) U-Boot binary in one fell swoop, I'm all ears. :)
