Hi Feng,

We've had this discussion come and go a few times but as Sai mentioned,
it's pretty different from the currently supported parts.

I think the motivation is that the RasPi is a very very cheap eval board
interested parties can use to noodle around with OpenBMC a little before
deciding whether to commit.

Please, someone correct me if I'm wrong - but I'd say that you're welcome
to do any work you need to get OpenBMC to start building and booting on
RasPi and we will be happy to see that work committed upstream.

Best luck!
Emily
