It still tries to run Linux boot from SD card first:
"run mmcboot;" \
and if it fails, it tries to run Android from eMMC:
"run emmc_android_boot; " \
If that's a problem for some boards and you want them to run standard
Linux from eMMC, I can try to rework that patch to choose
automatically, which one to run (Linux or Android), e.g. using
$partitions and $partitions_android environment variables. Or we can
add some global CONFIG_ANDROID option to choose between distributions.
Which one would be better?
