Ideally, the bootloader image should be part of the filesystem image,
so it's easy for users to reflash their bootloader. But there's no easy
way to do that.

So just say that there is a bootloader image in output/images/, and it
can be used on the target to reflash the bootloader, and give the
command line.

Best regards,

Thomas
