Due to issues with the wifi stack, I have to move my project from 2.6 to 2.8.
I downloaded the new tools set (toolchains\cf2149caf2) and new nordic connect version 2.8.0 as per
https://docs.nordicsemi.com/bundle/ncs-latest/page/nrf/installation/updating.html
I read the migration guides for 2.7 and 2.8, and the 'using sysbuild for multi-image builds guides:
https://docs.nordicsemi.com/bundle/ncs-latest/page/zephyr/build/sysbuild/index.html#sysbuild
Mostly this gave me a headache.
I created sysbuild.conf (at the root where I run west - is this right?), and filled in the stuff from the migration guides for mcuboot and nrf70 support.

I updated my prj.conf for the changes to nrf70 config option names
I created sysbuild/mcuboot and copied in the prj.conf from the previous child_image/mcuboot.conf
There was already a sysbuild/hci_ipc/prj.conf, I updated it with changes I had made to child_image/hci_ipc.conf
Then I set west to use my board and sysbuild and try to build:
> west config build.board cc1medv1_nrf5340_cpuapp
> west config build.sysbuild True
> west build --build-dir cc1-med/build cc1-med --board cc1medv1_nrf5340_cpuapp --pristine -DBOARD_ROOT=%CD%
This got me cmake failing.

Now I'm stuck....I'll look at the DTS thing tomorrow... I think I already knew that the DTS stuff had changed 2.6 to 2.8... but the migration guide doesn't reference it as far as I can see?
