If I'm not mistaken, that gives you the kernel from the microSD card
but userland from the USB storage device. That may not be a bad thing
depending on what you're doing. If the machine is intended to build its
own world and kernel I think it'll make mischief.

I'd be pleased to learn this is untrue.

I elected to use the microSD for / but put /usr /var swap and /tmp on usb
partitions on the notion that / is seldom written to.
