As we discussed today, and worked on today together:

- The FAT partition can indeed be dropped, and the kernel + DTB +
  extlinux.conf can be put into the ext4 root filesystem

- The "dd" quicks to write the bootloader into sdcard.img can be
  dropped, but that requires a small change in genimage, which we
  implemented, and submitted
  at: https://github.com/pengutronix/genimage/pull/260

The results of our work is
at https://github.com/tpetazzoni/buildroot/tree/librecomputer-lepotato.

I suggest to wait for the feedback of the genimage maintainers on our
feature proposal, before submitting a v3 of this work to Buildroot.
Maybe you can register/watch the Github pull request to get notified
when something changes there.

Thanks!

Thomas
