Correct, to meet everyone's out of box pkg requirements, the eMMC is
mostly full.  If you drop opencv/python/chromium you'll gain a lot of
space back.

Otherwise, it's just easier to just use the non-flasher image on a
4GB/8GB microSD card.
(making sure to use the "grow_partition.sh" script under
/opt/scripts/tools/ to fully resize the drive)
