Root How to flash Android onto a completely clean GT-P3100 board

Hi,

My Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 (GT-P3100) has developed a hardware fault and so I'm replacing the motherboard. The eBay stores that sell this motherboard won't say whether they come preloaded with Android or even a boot loader / recovery system.

So assuming that it is completely clean, how can I flash a new system recovery (e.g. ClockWorkMod or stock Android System Recovery) and then an Android version on a completely empty board? Is the GT-P3100's motherboard / OMAP4430 configured a particular boot sequence - e.g. 1) Serial/USB 2) SD Card 3) NAND Flash for a bootable image?

And if USB is part of that sequence, what tools / drivers do I need to be able to flash something onto it?

Thank you.
