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! Signed-off-by: Christian Lamparter <chunkeey@gmail.com>
