This is up to you but please consider the possibility of using the
kernel inside /boot and a single partition. This makes much easier to
use wic for disk images as you don't need to set IMAGE_BOOT_FILES for
the all device tree files and kernel.

I intend to retire the current sdcard generation class so wic should
be used from now on.
