I downloaded the image and am a little concerned with the fact that
the partition table appears to be VERY strange - there's a W95 FAT32
partition at the beginning that appears to be empty, which shifts the
partitions up by one and wastes over 4MB of SD card space.  On top of
that, none of the partitions end on a cylinder boundary, which means 
repartitioning it is a concern.  Can I just partition out my SD card
and copy the individual partition contents I want (kernel, initrd,
JFFS2 root) over?

Also, I suspect that the SD Card can be booted via a double-chain, 
where the onboard flash tslinux kernel can boot the SD card tslinux 
kernel, which then can boot the full Debian system, but I haven't had
time to try it yet.  I prefer the ability to boot w/o SD card, just 
in case :)

Any and all suggestions/pointers/assistance greatly appreciated.
