-  * /boot/grub/grub.cfg needs to be tweaked to point to SLKroot 
-  * /etc/defaults/grub needs GRUB_ENABLE_LINUX_LABEL=true added 
-  * don't version number Slackware's GRUB entry - e.g. '/boot/efi/EFI/slackware-15.0+/grubaa64.efi' 
-  *  grub-mkconfig - potentially patch to prevent use, with option to override. - eg /sbin/mkinitrd is not implemented on ARM. See os-initrd-mgr(8) for details. 
   * Flashing tool  - look at creating a microroot function within the sdcards.build that processes the os initrd   * Flashing tool  - look at creating a microroot function within the sdcards.build that processes the os initrd

 +  * Add to the restool package the following udev rule: [[https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/restool/blob/rawhide/f/fsl_mc_bus.rules | fsl_mc_bus.rules]]
 +  * Can add it to /etc/udev/rules.d/ to test with reboot.
 +  * Link to Fedora restool source [[https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/restool]]
 +  * The latest is restool is version 2.4.0 but 2.3.0 is working as it should
 +  * Decide what package will install this rule.  Maybe it can fit itself in one of the integration scripts?
