[elbe-devel] [PATCH v2] hdimg: Add support for specifying the first partition offset

[Kurt Kanzenbach]

The starting sector for the first partition in an msdos or gpt image is hard
coded to 2048. Depending on the image layout (bootloader, redundant bootloaders,
...) it makes sense to move that offset around. Introduce a new property to
allow that.
