Appearently the Archos guys can't read :(

In this case I suggest that you just hardcode this number in your board
file and add a big fat warning comment that you only did that to make
the Archos kernel bootable.
Another, maybe better solution would be to:

- register a proper id for the G9
- use it as default in barebox
- Add some template in the environment to overwrite it to make the
  Archos provided Kernel boot.
