it took a couple release to get all the bugs out, can you retest with
the git version?

I'll hack on this today, i have a bunch of logic for the bone's to
make sure they got the "-bone" kernel at all cost, i'm going to change
that to a "-bone" || "-ti".

I think we can safely enable this now. Since the flasher is running at
boot in a single user environment, usbmount shouldn't mount an
external device, so only the base /media/<dir> should be present while
it's flashing. The whole point of disabling /media/ from rsync, when
we ran after the board fully booted, there was a risk the user had a
big full usb drive plugged in and was mounted to /media/, this would
have overfilled the eMMC.
