XXS1500:
 - kernel-image-mips has to include patch
 - a tftp image has to be build with kernel and ramdisk joined or a
   smart ramdisk has to be precompiled into the kernel that can fetch
   the real one or boot the installed system depending on parameters
 - support installs via SSH wanted, serial console has no hardware
   flow control and can loose chars sometimes (when the terminal is
   under load). Not that important, just more convenient.
