I put the SD card in a linux desktop and could not find the linuxrc 
file on the sd card.  what folder is it supposed to be in?

Also, if I remove the boot jumper and removed the SD card, I get the 
following over and over:

>> TS-SDBOOT - built Oct 17 2006
>> Copyright (c) 2006, Technologic Systems


>> TS-SDBOOT - built Oct 17 2006
>> Copyright (c) 2006, Technologic Systems

even after I issue the boot from onboard flash command it still does 
the same.  Do I have a problem with the 9441 board?

Command I used:
ln -sf /linuxrc-mtdroot /linuxrc; save


Thanks.
