Create a system for flashing units

We need a good system for partitioning and flashing the eMMC after the devices have been tested. I propose the following plan.

  • an SD image with a kernel and rootfs containing the HW test script and a modified install script
  • boot this SD card from the left slot
  • run HW test script and ensure unit passes
  • run install script which does 3 things:
    • download most current release bootloader and rootfs from server
    • install to eMMC
    • perform systemd nspawn since this is not yet done at the image build stage (unless built on native)
