Hehe, could have seen:
Boot1:
- param2: 0x100
- param3: 0x500
as well. I am no UX expert so whatever works best for you :)

Cool. Do you know if there's some public sources with appropriate
licensing for boot_merger for RK35xx? There used to be code in the
U-Boot fork from Rockchip but they stopped updating boot_merger source a
few years ago last time I checked.
Could be nice to have it in U-Boot too :)
