thank you for your help Matt --- great work.

The flashing as described in the wiki seemed to have worked, at least it
said it wrote some thing ;-) But when I try to mount mtdblock3 I get the
error below.

        root@h2200:~# mount -t jffs2 /dev/mtdblock3  /mnt/test
        mount: Mounting /dev/mtdblock3 on /mnt/test failed: No such device

btw: /mnt/test exists

I also tried to boot into it through LAB, when I take the SD card out I
get the following, which is expected:



        >> Booting now.
        >> Looking for filesystems...
        >> Trying "/dev/mmc/blk0/part1"... failed
        >> Trying "/dev/mtdblock/3"... ok, but no zImage.
        >> No bootable filesystems found!
        boot>


If I try to copy the zImage accross manually I get the following:



        boot> copy fs:/mnt/boot/zImage fs:/zImage
        Copying [fs:/mnt/boot/zImage] to [fs:/zImage] ...
        fs: getcheck: Sorry, /mnt/boot/zImage seems to be missing - or at 
least, not stat'able.
        Source [fs] rejected filename "/mnt/boot/zImage".
        boot>


Wasn't sure if mtdblock3 was mounted at that point, so I tried to mount it
manually:

        boot> mount /dev/mtdblock3 /mnt
        lab: mount -t jffs2 /dev/mtdblock3 /mnt failed with errno -2

same for:

        boot> mount /dev/mtdblock/3 /mnt
        lab: mount -t jffs2 /dev/mtdblock/3 /mnt failed with errno -2
        boot>


No luck with the mounting. Do I have to format the mtdblock3 first before
i can copy GPE accross !?


Thank you very much.
