Yes, the old machine id is an issue, but peoples(If anybody is
already using 2430osk) can always download the latest
u-boot from www.mistralsolutions.com and use it.(I don't think mistral
supports the old machine id in U-boot anymore).

As of now all the code written for 2430osk will run on omap2evm also,
so i don't think there is any major issue
which can happen due to this name change.

Moreover its the change related to name change from 2430OSK to
OMAP2EVM.(Not actually related to hardware
change like n800 and n810), and Mistral no longer sell boards with the
name 2430OSK all the boards come out with name
OMAP2EVM. Thats why I want the name change from
2430OSK to OMAP2EVM
