Actually you can boot a device tree kernel even on old bootloaders
that do not support dt.

You need to select:
CONFIG_ARM_APPENDED_DTB=y
CONFIG_ARM_ATAG_DTB_COMPAT=y

Then,

make -j4 zImage
make imx51-babbage.dtb
cat arch/arm/boot/zImage arch/arm/boot/ imx51-babbage.dtb >
arch/arm/boot/zImage_dtb
mkimage -A arm -O linux -T kernel -C none -a 0x90008000 -e 0x90008000
-n Linux -d arch/arm/boot/zImage_dtb arch/arm/boot/uImage

and boot this generated uImage the same way as you used to do in the
non-dt case.

Regards,

Fabio Estevam
