Bug Description
origen hwpack config files have some specific offset and length settings when I translate these to the v3 format and put them into a config file linaro-
samsung_bl1_start: '1'
samsung_bl1_len: 32
samsung_env_len: 32
samsung_bl2_len: 1024
I commented them out hoping that defaults would be right but I ran into two problems
First: linaro-media-create issues a nearly endless dd of /dev/zero for zeroing the env area. I worked around that by setting env_dd to 'no'
Second: after l-m-c created a boot disk the resulting image does not boot. It fails to mount the rootfs and drops into the initramfs shell.

I later changed the env_dd to
env_dd: 'no'
to get around the nearly infinite dd problem.
