google jumpnowtek and beaglebone black, This will be a Yocto build, there is a learning curve to Yocto, but it allows you to also configure what's in the filesystem also.

The other option is buildroot, allows for a very light weight filesystem.

These are the only two methods that I know of to build uboot, linux and filesystem.

TI also provide instructions on building an image (u-boot/kernel/filesystem) using Yocto at http://software-dl.ti.com/processor-sdk-linux/esd/docs/latest/linux/Overview_Building_the_SDK.html

I have used this to build a stripped down kernel with only the kernel drivers I needed plus a minimal filesystem (based on arago-base-tisdk-image).  Once you get the hang of the image files you might be able to strip out even more to meet you needs.
