Well for the boards that had a standard file system, we should support
that. But at least for the LDP, there was only the "bootable microSD card"
AFAIK:

Right. I doubt anybody has bch8 rootfs on LDP.. And considering u-boot
must be ham1 to boot at all, that's what we should change for the
devices that do not have not standardized on bch8.
