There was an issue with u-boot failing to transfer correctly from phone to PC, usually when trying to back up the rootfs. I remember mention of a patch, but I can't confirm that it's now fixed as I've not tried it. > I usually go > and sacrifice a few chickens and make sure that it's a new moon before > I update a bootloader.

With the FR you don't need to worry too much as there is a failsafe u-boot in NOR in addition to the updateable one in NAND. The failsafe one can't be overwritten if you don't have a debug board, so you can always use it to flash a new bootloader to NAND. > Cheers!! > > On Tue, Jan 13, 2009 at 11:36 AM, "Marco Trevisan (Treviño)" > > <[email protected]> wrote: > > john dowd wrote: > >> I've alway been able to backup the kernel partition of my Neo FR but > >> not the jffs2 partition.
