Also, if the svn has a bug in the bootloader, it can make your target

bootloader.
The last "released" H300 bootloader is from july, 2006!
Regarding the TODO list at the above page, a lot of things have been fixed
since then.
So it would be really nice if somebody (who is able to reanimate a bricked
device) would be able to test a current SVN bootloader and create a new
release.
Well I can't do that, I'm blind, I can't solder very well and I don't have
the skills, the time or the equipment to... Sorry
Unfortunately it seems that only Linus is able to do this - and it seems he
doesn't have enough time or isn't in the mood to do it...
Yes.
Wouldn't this be something for a developer meeting?
Perhaps
Developers want to make sure that a specific and tested
bootloader will be issued to all users. So be extra careful before
attempting anything.
If you still want to try it - please report about your attemptions and
results ;)
I won't just yet I was just curious about this, but if I do I certainly
will report back.
