gadget.yaml: move ubuntu-boot to VFAT #34

Closed mvo5 closed 4 years ago

mvo5 commented 4 years ago

The uboot bootloader cannot write to ext4 partitions. However we need to keep state information about the booted kernel on ubuntu-boot from the bootloader. So we need to switch this paritition type to vfat.

@mvo5 how do you expect to work with existing installations that are using ext4?
