Adrien Bourmault b7e7b5a257 packages: seabios: fix payload not being added to the GNU Boot image A bug has been introduced in `a202dce646` ("images: remove 'libgfxinit' from the image names.") where we simplified images names without taking care of renaming the filename used as the SeaBIOS build target. This error was visible during the generation of the images: Creating new ROM image: bin/[...]/seabios_kgpe-d16-[...].rom payload/seabios/seabios.elf: No such file or directory E: Could not load file 'payload/seabios/seabios.elf'. E: Failed while operating on 'COREBOOT' region! E: The image will be left unmodified. The resulting image was then missing a payload entry and was then non-functional (people would then just get a black screen without any OS loaded from the disk). GNUtoo confirmed by bisecting that the commit cited above was indeed responsible of the bug and also that the error message above was specific to this issue. This commit fixes this bug by setting variables to hold the actual payload location (making future changes easier), in the relevant files.
