To be honest I don't feel comfortable about doing that. One
knowledgeable guy on the debian-kernel mailing list said that "the
Kconfig entry for ARM_APPENDED_DTB is quite scary about enabling it and
booting without a DTB appended"[1] and indeed it doesn't look very
encouraging.

Another message on the thread talks about "concerns about damaging other
boards"[2] (maybe I am misreading this one?).

Is there a risk of damaging the board if it is accidentally booted with
the wrong DTB or without one?

Does it help if I test with only dreamplug-3.4.0.patch (which adds
CONFIG_MACH_DREAMPLUG) applied?
