That's a good option, at least for the write to flash piece. We could
even extend the manifest to include the names of the service files to
delete/clean up the flash. Most of the rest of the code manages the
D-Bus objects so that'd be common with all flash layouts.

Another option, or combination with a json manifest, would be to have
different repos or different subdirectories for specific 
implementations.


Lei, thinking we could convert Romulus to ubi, and use the PNOR chip
to store the alternate BMC version. I think that'd be more straight fwd
and the advantage would be that the interfaces are tested and verified.
And on the side we can continue this discussion on how to make the
code more modular to support other layouts and we can start making
the changes but at least we can get Romulus using signature validation
in the mean time.
