Better is to use apt-get in a later step and omit all the includes altogether.

That is probably related to FK_MACHINE.
I have an updated version of the notes, which I took some days back, when I
tried to prepare an SD card for the cubox-i2ultra. The should cover your
issues, but I could not fully test it since the Debian u-boot seems to be
incompatible with the Cubox-i2ultra, therefore I did not release it so far,
but your feedback tells me, I should distribute the update, even though it is
not tested:
http://bokomoko.de/~rd/Debian/cubox-i-notes-untested.txt
Please let me know if you have any positive of negative feedback.
Thanks,
Rainer
