I\'m afraid you\'re on your own there. Next time I do a release I\'ll remember to also compile a kernel with debug out. I\'m not able to do one now, because all my resources go into OpenEmbedded.

Mickey,

You\'ve got a c750 haven\'t you? What\'s the difference (in terms of getting the flashing to work)? or was it just luck (or a lack thereof)?

(I\'m interested as I\'m tempted to upgrade when I get the chance).

Well, I have seen quite a few C760 users around in the forums who have 3.3.6pre1 running... maybe they could do a NAND Block test on their machine for us?

I\'ve got 3.3.6pre1 running on my C760.  If someone would tell me how to do a NAND Block test (and explain if it could mess my Z up,) I\'ll give it a go.

Yes, I have a c750 and I have yet to hear about someone with a c750 and flashing problems. Everything went fine for the first time and every time later - maybe it\'s the flash for the second bank on the c760/c860 coming from a lower quality production.

All right, on my own I figured out _my_ problem: corrupted
(or, rather, interrupted) download of initrd.bin.
It would have been much better if md5sums file was also present... And my guess is that at least some of the problems
that people are reporting stem from this \"issue\".

Btw, it made no difference of what version of eraseall to use -
looking at the source it does not do anything special with bad
blocks - just if some error occurs on erasing some 16k block
it reports an error and proceeds with erasing the next 16k block.

Also, attempting to start opie-sh howto results in error - inability to find the howto itself. Is it supposed to be this way (i.e. if this is a known issue) ?

Thanks,

Alex Y.
