The target is a custom hardware based on an TI AM33xx ARM Cortex A8
processor. The platform is quite similar to a Beaglebone.

We've tested with Linux 3.7-rc8.

We used

 kexec --append="`cat /proc/cmdline` <extra-parameter>" --dtb=<device-tree-blob> --force uImage

where <extra-parameter> is an extra boot parameter that we append to the
currently used cmdline and <device-tree-blob> is the filename of a
device-tree-blob created using dtc.
