Yeah, I had a look at that but could only find the rootfs
and got a bit lost trying to figure out what the QEMU
commandline would end up being :-)

A github repo should be OK -- I'm pretty sure we can download
from there (e.g. we already download some rootfs images from
your linux-build-test github repo).

Looking at the QEMU machine model code they don't differ
much -- sx1-v1 has a bit less flash, and that's about it.
