The orion_nand module gets automatically loaded on platforms that require it. The module (check with modinfo) has a module-alias "platform:orion_nand". Now, there are some calls to kirkwood_nand_init() in board-setup files under arch/arm/mach-kirkwood/. You could try to figure out which file is used by the DreamPlug and have it not call kirkwood_nand_init() for the DreamPlug. At least, that's what I would try first. Good luck! _______________________________________________ arm mailing list arm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/arm
