Thanks a lot for your explanation, Pali!

Where I need to specify that path param? A argument applied after u-boot-update-bootmenu? Is syntax explained in -h of u-boot-update-bootmenu?

Wait, I don't get something. bootmenu.img.d is the place, where kernel uImages are stored. But, you've just said that it always *must* be on first eMMC partition and, at the same time, that ITEM_DEVICE tells, where to look for kernel images? I hope I'm not suck at explaining, but it looks like conflicting statements.

Where we can find syntax for it? Is it regular, absolute path, or something containing EXT_CARD (or INT_CARD) and partition numbers?
