OpenBMC port to AST2400 on Piestewa Peak CRB?

[Tian Fang]

Hi Dave,

Facebook has been developing OpenBMC for several Intel host CPU boards 
using AST2400. But not for Piestewa Peak Customer Reference board. As 
Patrick mentioned, "The AST2400 itself is
host-processor agnostic, so it probably wouldn't be much trouble to get 
it running on that board."

Facebook OpenBMC repo is at http://github.com/facebook/openbmc. We are 
working with IBM team to have common Linux kernel and u-boot.

Thx,
Tian
