Yes, right. barebox-flash-image is the correct file to use. I updated
this in the wiki.

Due to updates the panda_*defconfig configs currently do not build for
the panda board. Please either manually call a make menuconfig and set
the config back to panda:

System Type  --->
  OMAP Features  --->
    Select OMAP board (Texas Instrument's Panda Board)  --->

Or apply the patch I just sent to the list:

ARM: Panda: Fix board selection in panda defconfig files

I'm not 100% sure the ES variant is supported. What was the difference
between the ES and the regular board again? Does the ES have a omap4460
whereas the regular board has a omap4430? If yes then the ES should be
supported.
