Patches welcome*, as I DO NOT have the Devkit8000, so i'm unable to
test/fix it...

https://github.com/RobertCNelson/stable-kernel

Remember this is also using an external kernel, with fedora userspace...

That's because, the only difference between those boards, is the
disabling of eth0 on bootup...  But still your using the Beagle
MLO/u-boot.img on a non Beagle device...  (In the past i had to
separate them to using different version of MLO/u-boot.bin, but those
days are past, so there's zero bootloader differences now between
those 3..)
