I like that idea :) Will have to look at it and add to .oz354x branch so
it will be much easier to create working images for collie.

I think that we lack "serial" in MACHINE_FEATURES - this would be needed
by "irda" feature but will be also useful for machines which have normal
serial (RS232/RS485) here we can put lrzsz.
"pcmcia" feature should recommend "serial", "bluetooth", "wifi" features
atleast. It also contain now hostap-cs without checking for "wifi".
"ext2" feature could be renamed to kind of "internal-storage" - most of
our supported devices use ext2 but not every of them has internal storage
with ext2.
"wifi" feature need some work too. There are machines which does not have
Prism based wifi cards (so no need for hostap-utils) or do not support
WPA (wpa-supplicant is not needed then). h4000 has internal wifi on
ACX100 chipset (iirc) so it need only wireless-tools to have it working
(chipset related packages should be listed in machine config).
