Hi Baruch,
Let's do the boot.scr solution for general i.MX6 separately. At this point 
I want to get out something conservative and timely for Solid-Run boards. 
I hope to have the CuBox-i defconfig ready on Wednesday.

I think that the unified boot/root partition solution should at least at 
first be committed in parallel with and not in place of the current 
create-boot-sd.sh so as not to upset anyone.
