Anyone with the same issue ?

This is due to linux4sam/at91bootstrap#127.
Pull Request proposed at #255 to update at91bootstrap.

[joelguittet]

This is because the at91bootstrap for this target need to be upgraded to 3.10.3.
However, the support is not maintained for the the old at91bootstrap in this layer, so the PR was rejected.
Anyone wanting to have it to support old boards should maintain the at91bootstrap in it's own layer.
