yes but it's kind of both isn't it ? there is this berryboot "thing"
reading config.txt and running a kernel which in our case is the
real bootloader u-boot. Somehow I have to create the configs so that
uboot is called. The loader="berryboot" information would be the
trigger to do that. berryboot is also the name I found when looking
up the boot capabilities of the raspberry devices. Thus I found
the name ok because it's about loading raspberry... somehow :-)

The scripts as part of the descriptions in the buildservice will
most probably only fiddle around with the contents of the boot.scr
as we do it for all boards.

I think the setup so that u-boot is called is pretty generic and can
be done by kiwi so you don't need to care for this in any script

yep it will be that way and in order to not break e.g the chromebook
description I'd like to distinguish it by the loader setup
