Um, yes they can. You just need to include the dtb in the zImage
wrapper. I've booted Ebony with Openbios using David's patches and
Bamboo with PIBS using my patches (which are based off David's patches).
What I think you mean is that there is no translation from a bd_t (using
older u-boot for example) to a dt in the wrapper yet. But that is what
Scott's cuimage patches are for.
