Hi Terry,

U-Boot has it's own project side. They include new boards in a similar
way like buildroot: Someone likes to have support for a certain board
and starts work. E.g. using a tutorial like this:
http://book.opensourceproject.org.cn/embedded/embeddedprime/opensource/0136130550/ch07lev1sec4.html

A good start is to use an existing similar board as template and start
modifying it for the new one.
I don't think that buildroot introduces new boards to u-boot itself, but
you can use br to make your own patches for a new one and perhaps send
them to the u-boot developers:

Check the boards known to u-boot here:
http://git.denx.de/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=u-boot.git;a=tree;f=board;hb=HEAD

Regards,
Marcus
