Hi Spenser,

Ok, just for future references and because I finally realized that the
rootfs.cpio.uboot was indeed compressed thought file command didn't
say so, this should be the final SD layout:

cp output/images/uImage SD/uImage
cp output/images/rootfs.cpio.uboot SD/uramdisk.image.gz
cp output/images/boot.bin SD/boot.bin
cp output/images/zynq-zed.dtb SD/devicetree.dtb
cp output/images/u-boot.img SD/u-boot.img

Ok, I had such feeling and this asserts that feeling =)

Yup, I read that, the problem was that I didn't get the previous
configuration working, this makes easier for me to start now with a
base working system =)

I will be looking forward for your patch to get applied, to rebase
mine and improve the docs :)
