Hi,

I once did something similar for the olinuxino lime A10.

I compiled uboot and a kernel and used an arch linux arm rootfs.

The scripts can be found as a tar.gz

They are probably out of date, but can be modified and can give a 
skeleton for you to work with.

I'm not quite sure about the bootloader in the pi however, whether or 
not it can use uboot. The pi needs a blob to run IIRC.

You may also wish to look at https://github.com/RPi-Distro/Pi-gen which 
creates the isos for raspbian from the pi foundation.
