[Bug 615773] Re: postinst trigger fails on eMMC

[Oliver Grawert]

flash-kernel looks for /etc/flash-kernel.conf and then falls back to a generic method (see 
https://blueprints.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/mobile-maverick-arm-improved-subarch-detection)

if /etc/flash-kernel.conf exists and contains a value for UBOOT_PART it
will try to update a vfat on that partition that u-boot can use for
booting.

we are a) missing a switch for RAW partitons yet as the blaze needs and
b) a method to handle these kind of partitions at all.
