apm821xx: use x86's upgrade scripts for MyBook Live
Advantages:
- preserves existing partition layout. On the hard-drive.
Only the boot and rootfs partition will be overwritten.
Disadvantages:
- The upgrade process takes much longer to run.
from 2-3 seconds to 15-25 seconds.
Please note that sysupgrade will refuse to upgrade, if the existing
installation has an incompatible partition layout. Future changes
to the bootfs and/or rootfs partition size will likely cause breakage
to the sysupgrade procedure. In these cases, the ext4-rootfs.img.gz
has to be written manually onto the disk. Please don't forget to backup
your configuration in this cases.
Note2: This patch requires
"base-files: upgrade: make get_partitions() endian agnostic"
Note3: If your current installation does not host the two
changes, sysupgrading will wipe the existing partition
layout. Don't forget to backup your data!
