Netboot images are now available for OMAP4.

• There is a currently known bug that partman will not create a proper boot partition for guided partitioning. During the partitioning step, you must select manual partitioning, then create a 72 MiB FAT32 partition, with no mount point, and the Bootable flag must be set to 'on'. This partition must be the first partition on the device. flash-kernel-installer will be able to find the partition on its own.
