<br>
it was frans i believe who first did the dd if=/dev/mmcblk0p1<br>
of=/tmp/foo dump, the entire contents of which will have to be put<br>
into *exactly* the right place (exactly the same position) so i<br>
recommend a 2gb SD card for this, exactly the same size as the Sandisk<br>
NAND drive.<br>
<br>
so, jon, if you want to help trying that, it's utterly simple, and<br>
you... hey, actually, you could probably just copy the entire NAND<br>
onto the SDcard in _your_ machine: dd if=/dev/mmcblk0 of=/dev/mmcblk1<br>
<br>
make DAMN sure that's the right way round :)<br>

<div>I have a 2GB SD card, so I can prep this with a view to trying
to restore to Adam's system. We'll have to organise a convenient time
to do this. I've got a busy weekend coming up when computing won't
exactly be high priority ...</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Once the internal NAND is dd copied to the SD card is it
expected that it should just 'boot', or would the three fingered salute
be required?</div>
