I'm missing something here. The sources exist? But only the
detailed instructions that does the whole
thing is missing?
Well if someone points me in the right directions, I go make
it all from scratch and a script file. I need it for my SoM board
that is supposed to work with 5" and 7" LCD, but I am happy
to get it working with HDMI and MK802 first and document it and
release it GPL'd for everyone to use as they wish.
