That image makes It looks like you could almost fit two VF2L boards into one VF2 box 
It is only the plastic shipping boxes though.
In reality the actual VF2 PCB (Printed Circuit Board) is only ~1.5 times the size of the VF2L PCB.
VF2L: 85 mm x 56 mm (3.35 inches x 2.2 inches) - standard Raspberry Pi form factor.
VF2: 100 mm x 72 mm (3.94 inches x 2.83 inches) - standard Pico-ITX form factor.
P.S. I do wonder if any of the RPi cases will work on the VF2L, it would be odd in some ways but nice in others (¥/€/£/$).
Got my boards today in the mail :-).
Lets the tinkering begin.

Can you verify the BootROM is same as JH-7110 ?
Directions for copying to file on USB storage from U-Boot:
save usb 0:1 2a000000 starfive_jh7110_bootrom.bin 0x8000
And when able on host computer provide md5sum sha256sum whatever is convenient. Thanks.

You should probably make it clear that this command will only write to pre-existing filesystems on the USB devices that U-boot has compiled in support to write.
save <interface> <dev[:part]> <addr> <filename> bytes [pos]
- Save binary file 'filename' to partition 'part' on device
type 'interface' instance 'dev' from addr 'addr' in memory.
'bytes' gives the size to save in bytes and is mandatory.
'pos' gives the file byte position to start writing to.
If 'pos' is 0 or omitted, the file is written from the start.
In the case of the VF2(/?VF2L?) it looks like Das U-Boot currently supports FAT (which would include FAT32), ext2 and ext4 filesystems.
Yes, they are the same.

Thanks for the instructions.
