Yes, fully agree.
Peng,
After the adoption of binman, both flash.bin and u-boot.itb need to be
flashed to the boot media.
This breaks user experience, distro integration, etc, which is not good.
Can we have binman generate a single bootable flash.bin binary (which
contains flash.bin + u-boot.itb) again
to keep compatibility and avoid breakage?
Thanks,
Fabio Estevam
