Hi all,

sure - this worked perfect :-)

I successfully flashed bootloader and a (iirc 17MB) jffs2 image.
No problems so far - i'll build and check with a larger image now.

One really bad issue i found is that resuming from suspend doesn't work
anymore with the new botloader. 
Another strange effect i found is that X died several times during my
test. I can't remember this behaviour from a test with this image using
the old bootloader, but i have no idea why this could be related to the
bootloader.

But apart from this... really good work! 

If we get this resume issue fixed, we'll have a usable device... the OE
images for it only need some minor config fixes and a web browser :-)

Greetings

Florian
