Ahem sorry... i mean 'stock' as 'non upgraded kernel (and DTS). Your last rootfs!

Clearly, i've double checked the package installed/upgraded, doing the dist-upgrade, and none was added.

And i'm really running THIS kernel:

eg, your rootfs upgraded to the latest kernel!


Looking at the forums (i'm a bit confused by forums, a wiki i think will be better for such things...) seems to me that:

a) there's no an upgraded uboot for the ix4-200d, but seems that the stock firmware can boot to HD.

b) there's a way to boot an ''intermediate bootloader'', but here i'm totally lost

c) there's some way to drive the display and buttons, but really i've not understand how.

d) i need to ''map'' correctly the MTD to be able to use fw_printenv (and fw_* generally); also here i'm lost.

Again, say me if i can do something useful... and thanks!
