BTW, I think we should actually relax the wording in the spec, and
move towards matthew's version on this: instead of saying "must be
vfat" to say "must be firmware readable" essentially means the same,
but is friendlier towards MacOS of course. So yes, we should totally
relax the language on this, but not, using completely arbitrary file
systems on this certainly doesn't make much sense.
