It seems that the board uses MCU of STM32F4 series, which is _not_
compatible for Gnuk.  Gnuk supports boards with STM32F103.

It would be possible to port Gnuk to STM32F4, however, it is rather
opposite direction to go.

I ported Chopstx (the thread library) to STM32F0, to see the
possibility of STM32F0.

Personally, I don't have an idea to port Gnuk to feature-full and
powerfull MCU.  I intentionally use non-powerful MCU with no crypto
accelerator.  STM32F103 is not so powerful but powerfull enough for
crypto computation of Gnuk (for me).

Well, if someone will port Gnuk to STM32F4, I would accept patches
(for an experiment), but it wouldn't be a recommended platform for
actual use.
