I took the risk.

Since it was on an sd card I popped it out and used gparted to erase the
fatfs and then resize rootfs (leaving that holiest of 1M holes).  I booted
fine except for:

[   15.517979] g_multi musb-hdrc.0.auto: failed to start g_multi: -2

'mount' shows:

/dev/mmcblk0p2 on / type ext4 (rw,noatime,errors=remount-ro,data=ordered)

...it's still calling itself partition 2, which is probably a good thing
since /etc/fstab is referring to it  by its /dev entry

So now I'm going to figure out how to re-enumerate the partition and change
the fstab entry accordingly.

But, I'm hoping to be able to use this card to flash eMMC and now I'm
wondering if all this is going to break your scripts?
