Linux Distributions for Orange PI H3 boards

@moinejf @Survive-Pi I'm using btrfs on emmc for a long time without problem, it is quite stable. The partition must be formated with -O ^extref option (which install_to_emmc does).
I'll check the script again to see if there are some problems.

@Riconec @All Do not try to use the wi-fi adapters which requires firmware uploading for now. It is not working.

@kometchtech Do not use update_boot.sh script, it is not working at the moment, I'll update it later. Use scriptbin_kernel.tar.gz to update the kernel, lib and script.bin

@AndrewStone After building the image, you must copy the right script.bin and uImage for your board to the fat partition.
You may want to update the content of the orange directory from the newest scriptbin_kernel.tar.gz before building.

We understand that the update_boot.sh is not working.
I want to be working with scriptbin_kernel.tar.gz.

@loboris: is the firmware load issue only wifi related or does this affect all firmware uploads?
