Cool this gives me some nice hints (but maybe it should be fatload is the the 
uImage is to be on a fat filesystem).
Never the less what you wrote is much more comprehensive then what uboothas to 
say when I write "help ext2load".

Another thing: I don't like to have ordinary journaled filesystems on flash 
devices (not talking about jffs* or other flash tuned filesystems). If I really 
need that then I try at least to keep the journal on a non flash device. This 
is a choice after a direct experience having burned out a 8Gb SDHC card after a 
short time running ext3 system on it without the noatime option. I was luky 
that transcend have lifetime guarantee and I got it changed with a brand new 
one that I now use with ext2 and noatime option. I know that 8Gb SDHC are'nt 
expensive now but at the time when I burned it they were the largest avalible.

Thanks
