Hi Ian, I have to admit I have not had time to out this on my SD card yet but I have booted it from the neo normally.

Inside /path/to/qtopia/qtopia-4.3.0-preview-neo-flash.tgz as you noted is the rootfs and the uImage. These are the only two you need. uImage in /boot/ and rootfs in / If I have time tonight I will confirm this for you. always too busy with work... -Pete
