- [boot.img] removed trigger command to execute install_recovery.sh to prevent stock recovery from being re-installed after each system reboot

Device rooted with the above method should have no problems installing latest official OTA update because:
a) OTA update checks for files integrity, but it doesnt check if any extra files were added to the system partition.
b) OTA update doesnt check the integrity of the boot.img, so you can flash a custom kernel if you want.
