Hello,

the bootldr included in the blupdater.img doesn't wotk on 16MB devices. But
at least it doesn't brick the pad like the first version for the SL4 did.

I need somebody (Peter?) to remove code for the 24MB root partition (and 8MB
home) in the latest version for the CL4. Peter already removed the code for
the second flash chip as that caused a major problem with the first attempts
to upgrade the bootldr with that (when the jffs2 image was installed from
this version the writing started at block 0 - which of course overwrote the
bootldr). 

The only thing i can think of that is different from the original attempts
from Alex tried while porting is the code defining the 24/8MB partitioning.

Peter could you build a version with the corrected code and send it to me. I
will modify the blupdater.img and also supply a link for those needing only
the bootldr (to salvage that mislung first bootldr installation).

Chris Martin
