Thanks again. I tried the new flasher but it was of no use.(mk_mmc.sh script). It is possibly not compatible with the new fdisk tools ? What solution do you recommend now in absence of mk_mmc.sh/ setup_sdcard.sh. Here is the the current state of my card. I already did nand erase and cannot get any prompt via the serial port/USB but the 40W message only if user button is pressed. Do I need to format the sdcard manually and use new MLO/Uboot images. Where is the path to those. ?
Once I get to use UBoot, which stable release do you recommend with it. I do not care about the gui but just want to be able to get to a prompt.
