Getting started with a custom nRF9160 board and Eclipse IDE instead of SEGGER

We just received a batch of custom boards containing the nRF9160. I would like to test them and start developing our actual application.

So far I have switched SW11 to match the DK voltage with our board voltage, and connected the P22 Debug Out to our board. It seems that when I flash a program, our custom board is targeted. We see its status LED blink.

Currently I am experiencing some barriers:
- Can I use Eclipse instead of SEGGER?
I have used SES for the past 2 days, and it's just not what I want to use. What are steps to take so I can use Eclipse?

- How to define our custom board so I can e.g. blink its LEDs?
The LEDs are on different pins than they are on the DK.
Besides adding a new board folder to the zephyr/boards folder, what are the actual changes I should make to these files. Currently when I tried it with Hello_world, i get "attempt to assign the value 'y' to the undefined symbol"
What other files do I need to edit?
How do I actually make the build use my custom board?
