I will eventually merge your changes into the mainline, but I believe
it is helpful to get these updates in OE for BeagleBoard users who
want to reproduce the shipping images.

Can you update the process to only flash the boards if the USER button
is held or some other similar strategy?  It seems that enabling this
script would make the SD card image useless for non-flashing
activities.  Of course, Gerald would need to sign-off on any flashing
process changes.
