* add support for Freescale MX51 Babbage Board to
  flash-kernel-installer.postinst (LP: #345534)
* create /target/etc/flash-kernel.conf from flash-kernel-installer.postinst
  (LP: #352260)

* Used named signals for "trap".
* Source /etc/flash-kernel.conf if present.
* Babbage: rename $dev to $fis_dev.
* Babbage: don't hardcode $fis_dev, $fis_offset_hex, and $fis_size_hex but
  read them from /etc/flash-kernel.conf instead.

* flash-kernel: fix generation of padded initramfs for imx51.
  - Generate a padded initramfs file; this is needed as just doing the
    padding on the initrd data will let the "fis" command write a datalength
    equal to the real initramfs length instead of using the length of the
    initramfs partition (which is the length we want to pass to RedBoot in
    exec -s).
  - Add a cleanup mechanism via "trap"; cleanup the padded initramfs file.
  - Remove previous hacks.

5. By Loïc Minier on 2009-03-31

* flash-kernel: Move Freescale MX51 Babbage Board around to be in its
  alphabetical place.
* flash-kernel-installer.isinstallable, .postinst: mark imx51 as installable
  and just run "update-initramfs -u" to install for now.

Map LVM devices in the form of /dev/vg/lv to /dev/mapper/...,

[ Martin Michlmayr ]
* Speed up flash-kernel on NSLU2 by reading the second part of the
  kernel in one go rather than byte by byte.
* Write the kernel first, followed by the initramfs on Thecus N2100
  (for comsmetics reasons only).
