I am using hypriot flash utility to flash hypriot images, but also other other images, for which the 'FAT' partition is not always the first one: for instance, the disk image for the rock-64 arm device (https://github.com/ayufan-rock64/linux-build/releases/download/0.8.3/bionic-minimal-rock64-0.8.3-1141-arm64.img.xz) has 7 partitions, and the FAT partition is number 6.
Therefore, I have improved the way to retrieve this partition id (I search for the first MSDOS partition). I did some successful test on linux and on mac (but of course, not with every possible situation).
I will be happy to see this code in a next official hypriot/flash release.

…ould be hardcoded for Hypriot images, which also works for official Ubuntu 20.04 RPI images. However, some images like Ubuntu 18.04 of rock64 create the boot disk as '/dev/disk2s6')
…d be hardcoded for Hypriot images, but not for other images)

@kremerol Thank you for the contribution. Some tests fail on CircleCI if you could have a look.
