I was just wondering, is there a way to flash the kernel live (i.e. with
the software still running)? Is the boot partition (it's on the NAND Flash

use dd? Or is there some trickery I can do with dfu-util?
opkg upgrade manages this so I'd say you could ... using a tool like mtd or
such, I really don't how, just that it does :)
I don't have my phone right here, but you can do a
cat /proc/mtd
and it will list out which mtd partition that contains the kernel. Then
you do
flasheraseall /dev/mtdX
cat yourUimage.bin > /dev/mtdX
And thats it
