It should be possible to find this out from Netgear's GPL sources then, right? >> No AFAIK.

Not of the SquashFS UBI volume, I presume, because those sectors 'never' change. And I think that _if_ a sector goes bad on a read action, we have a genuine problem and failing CRC actually is a correct action to take. As I mentioned on the forums, I'm having some trouble locating a USB->serial adaptor, so my input remains untested for now, unfortunately. Barring that, can someone (Gabor, maybe?) comment on the usual way in which cooperation on a new platform by people without commit access usually is done? Create a private branch, grant commit access to all contributors, when done rebase all commits onto latest commit of trunk, email diff? Thanks!
