[PATCH] BeagleBoard: Add a configuration header to MLO

[Jason Kridner]

A configuration header enables you to write the MLO onto the MBR (first
sector) of an SD card, making it bootable no matter how it is formatted.
A typical MLO would be less than 0x7e00 in size, such that most DOS
partitioned SD cards won't have the BR before the end of MLO.

I tested writing this to an SD card and avoiding overwriting the partition
table with:

dd if=MLO of=/dev/sda bs=1 count=80
dd if=MLO of=/dev/sda bs=512 skip=1 seek=1
