Oh, it's been a few years since we nuked that partition..

The "virtual" fat image you see now is just an image *.img file we
started pushing back in 2015.12.04

Last year, i had added a "--enable-fat-partition" option to the sdcard
authoring script:

https://github.com/RobertCNelson/omap-image-builder/commit/f24e65c7b7b63a13c41216f893cde05529101722

There's a "setup_sdcard.sh" example here:

Just add the --enable-fat-partition option and see what happens...
