Can you confirm whether or not I secure devices on L4 Linux ?

Hello, L4 hackers and Wei Jin :-)

I'm trying to secure devices which are 'SD card' and 'Ethernet' on L4 Linux.
Can you confirm whether or not I secure devices on L4 Linux ?
Sorry for long my mail..

The try I've done is as follows ..

1) 'l4lx-vbus.io' file I've modified
====================
# vim:set ft=ioconfig:
# configuration file for io

l4linux => new System_bus()
{
    NIC => wrap(hw-root.NIC);
    FLASHMEMORY => wrap(hw-root.FLASHMEMORY);
}
====================

2) 'arm-rv-eb-mc.devs' file I've modified using IRQ and MMIO information 
in my board's DataSheet .
(My board is 'Freescale imx6 Quad SABRE SD')
====================
local Hw = Io.Hw
local Res = Io.Res

Io.hw_add_devices
{

   FLASHMEMORY = Hw.Device
   {
     hid = "flashmemory";
     Res.mmio(0x02198000 , 0x0219BFFF);
     Res.irq(56);
   },

   NIC = Hw.Device
   {
     hid = "freescale";
     Res.mmio(0x02188000, 0x0218BFFF);
     Res.irq(150);
     Res.irq(151);
   },
}
====================

3) l4lx_xs.cfg I've modified.
====================
local lxname = "vmlinuz";
if L4.Info.arch() == "arm" then
   lxname = "vmlinuz.arm";
end

loader = L4.default_loader;

vbus_l4linux = loader:new_channel();

-- Start io & flash memory

loader:start(
   { caps = { sigma0  = 
L4.cast(L4.Proto.Factory,L4.Env.sigma0):create(L4.Proto.Sigma0);
              icu     = L4.Env.icu;
              l4linux = vbus_l4linux:svr();
            },
        log      = { "IO", "y" },
        l4re_dbg = L4.Dbg.Warn,
   }, "rom/io rom/arm-rv-eb-mc.devs rom/l4lx-vbus.io");


L4.default_loader:start(
   { caps = {
       log = L4.Env.log:m("rws"),
       vbus = vbus_l4linux;
     },
     l4re_dbg = L4.Dbg.Warn,
     log = { "l4linux", "yellow" },
   },  "rom/" .. lxname .. " mem=64M vmalloc=4M console=ttyLv0 
l4x_rd=rom/ramdisk-arm.rd root=1:0 rw ramdisk_size=20480 init=/linuxrc 
debug");
====================

4) I've modified 'modules.list'
5) I found something about device on L4 Linux booting log as follows..

====================

|====================

I guess that devices is secured through being registered in io server 
but network could not be run because there is not FEC ethernet driver.
(For reference, my board's ethernet use 'FEC Ethernet Driver'  )

However I don't know why could not run 'mount /dev/mmcblk0p1 /mnt '.

Do I secure devices on L4 Linux successfully ?
If I only make drivers for its to run successfully , can I access 'SD 
card' and 'Ethernet' on L4Linux ?
Or is my guess wrong ?

I would appreciate if anyone answer.
