Thanks!

For the record: I added the path for *all* missing arm64 boards, not just some :)

Support for installing in vendor subdirs was added to flash-kernel 3.91
from 2018, and I believe the vendor subdirs are included in the
debian-installer boot media as well.

alright, but if the vendor path is missing from flash-kernel's db,
everything silently works with a flattened tree. See attached patch, now
it works here too :)

Yes, I believe this was intentional to smooth the transition without
breaking booting for some machines...

I guess flash-kernel should error out if it's missing for arm=arm64?

Thanks,
Andre
