Note that this integration relies on an "standard" U-boot integration,

mender-conversion-tool with add-on scripts allow user to:
- shrink an existing embedded Linux image (shorter time of building final .sdimg raw disk image)
- restructure partition table of an existing embedded Linux image to follow Mender layout
- install Mender client related files
- install Grub related files for platforms supporting it
- patch U-Boot for platforms where Grub integration is not feasible (e.g. Raspbian)
- create Mender artifact based on the created .sdimg file
