Did anyone ever get one of these doing anything at all interesting, and if so, is the source available? For example: drawing something on to the screen, although I'd be happy enough just making the LED blink.

I know I can also go and start dissecting u-boot, but it would save time if someone had already done one.
I was hoping that someone with a better memory than mine would tackle this one -

I only recall two -
An alternate u-boot that includes fastboot.
An alternate kernel that includes kexec support.

Both system level customizations, not the user-land customizations you seem to be asking about.
