Hi!

I've carefully prepared lenny distro on SD card (lot of reboots). When all went 
smooth I wanted to transfer it to the onboard flash via createmtdroot utility.
The result was total mess of original sarge and new lenny. 

The workaround for me was to reboot from the SD to busybox and delete the 
onboard flash (rm -r) before invoking the createmtdroot command.

Does anybody know why the eraseall didn't clear the onboard flash?

Any hint is appreciated.
Jiri 

P.S.
The board is new RevD 7800.
