Ah, sure, could add that one... though probably want to make sure it is at least possible to boot debian in that environment first... Looks like there are several variants as well, malta (earlier mips architecture?), maltael (mipsel?), malta64 (?) and malta64el (mips64el?). I think there is actualy physical hardware for this too, but possibly "unobtanium"? Typically all u-boot packages except u-boot-qemu have been built on a relevent native architecture... but maybe this makes sense to be the exception. live well, vagrant
