@loboris: is the firmware load issue only wifi related or does this affect all firmware uploads?

@loboris: I copied the proper uImage and script.bin in your vivid image and got that to boot fine. Then I did the same thing with my own trusty build and it didn't work. Then I even copied the uImage and script.bin from YOUR vivid over to my trusty and it still doesn't work. That's why I think its a problem with init. I've noticed that on trusty /sbin/init is a executable but on vivid its a sym link to /lib/systemd/systemd. So clearly some large changes were made here. I'm going to install ubuntu-mate 15.04 in a 64 bit VM and see if I can create a vivid image using your git repos...

It does not matter if /sbin/init is a symlink (in most distribution it is).
The script is tested on Ubuntu and Debian 64bit, on what machine are you trying to run it?
All my Debian/ubuntu images are created with that script, there should be no problem.
