About device trees, does the simulator need an explicitly provided device tree (in a way we currently provide the kernel image and ramdisk) or is the dt table built into the image?
The simulator doesn't care whether you're using device tree or not, it is merely emulating a CPU. The boot-wrapper code currently does not support passing a device tree blob in, so you'll need to use the kernel config option to support appending the device tree to the uImage, or alternatively not use a device tree at all.
The bootwrapper could probably be enhanced to be device-tree aware; I was talking to Dave about this the other day.
