Presence of extlinux/extlinux.conf causes boot.scr to be ignored by u-boot #75

Running an sdcard.img built from master here (for Cubietruck) and found that after first boot and running setup-alpine, followed by alpine-dom0-install.sh, the old extlinux/extlinux.conf is left in place on the FAT partition and u-boot picks that up, causing Xen to not be loaded on reboot.

I've been unable to determine if this is a known issue, or if I missed a step somewhere, but I'd be happy to submit a PR to attempt to fix the issue if desired.

Sorry for the delay in following up on this. I don't think this is a known issue -- at the point I last built Cubietruck images, I don't recall this being a problem. I hope to get some time tomorrow morning to get out a Cubietruck+ and check this all works for that -- will see if this issue repro's then. In the meantime, if you still experience it and happen to have a PR to fix it, that'd be very welcome!
