    Once I understood this, I was able to finish step 2 above by learning how to use Buildroot and creating the kernel and dtb. Steps 3, 4, and 5, I use nerves_system_rpi3 as base and made modifications. This is a difficult part to describe what I did.

    Take a look at the Flash memory layout and compare that to the layouts used in one of the supported systems. We use fwup to create images. There's a lot of variety in how one can lay out Flash memory and deal with things like failbacks. At this point, just see if you can get fwup to create an image.
