Hi Stefan,
I now working on new driver which support 7250 and 7400. This patch is 
interested to me.
Do you now little bit more about it ? Which version of board is affected with 
this ?
Can I apply this modification for older hw too ?


5) Nand flash partition table patch
The NAND flash partition table was changed at some point in the
production run, increasing the size of TS-BOOTROM from 0x00004000
to 0x00020000 (16k to 128k). Petr Stetiar has a patch that changed
this, but only for the 32M unit. The patch below will fix both, but
only apply it if you have the 128k BOOTROM partition. ("dmesg | grep
BOOTROM" will help).


Thank you for your help.

Dan
