We use "/boot/uEnv.txt" as a trigger file.. Take an existing partition, shrink it to half, (dont' touch the 4mb hole), then clone that partition to the empy space (and update it's /etc/fstab).. On startup, u-boot will search the first 4 partitions for "/boot/uEnv.txt" so either rename the one on the first partition to the boot the second/etc.. There's probably a better way, but this will just work with the existing setup with the fewest mod's..
