Hi Robert,

I just started to play around with your omap-image-builder scripts. What 
I'm essentially trying to achieve is a customized version of your BBB 
flasher image which creates three instead of two partitions. I tried to 
edit beaglebone-black-copy-eMMC-to-microSD.sh on the flasher SD, thinking 
that I can "smuggle" my partition in there, but it didn't work. Maybe I 
simply failed at the sfdisk arguments, but I'm really not sure where to go 
from here. Can you give me a hint? Right now, when I run ./build_image.sh, 
the scripts seems to download a lot from ubuntu's package servers, not for 
debian. I tried to edit .project according to my needs but I'm kinda stuck 
and I don't think I'm doing it right. ;-)

Another question, once I have a stable system on my beagle bone, can I 
create a flasher microSD directly from the running system which contains my 
custom debian install so I can then install it on another beagle bone, too? 
What would be a way to achieve that?

Thank you for your time,

Oliver
