Title: Fix Sharp loader NAND 64MB limit(slc760/c860 only)
Post by: jrsjkd on October 10, 2004, 04:06:21 pm

I decided to try RC5 last night and thought it would be nice to resize the root to 121 mb on my c860.....no such luck.

While in the process of resizing/reflashing to find the max size root partition I could flash to, I kept wondering what option #3 is.  It says "Fix Sharp loader NAND 64MB limit (slc760/c860 only).

I tried searching with no luck.  Any ideas???

There is a bug in the Zaurus' NAND loader that prevents from having a root partition larger than 64Mb. This option permanently fixes the problem by patching the relevant code in the NAND.

All the gory details are here:
