Description

As the issue @catalinii mentioned in #3271, when a sdcard has got flashed with radxa rock3a image or manjaro-arm rock3a image before, armbian can't boot on this sd card after flashed with ether. Here is the root cause: https://forum.armbian.com/topic/12352-orange-pi-4/page/3/#comment-94322. We can avoid this issue by using the same gpt partition type as radxa and manjaro, and use the same fat /boot partition to aviod the bad support for ext4 filesystem from rockchip legacy u-boot.
