Now, I am trying to get back to the state I was before. Indeed you are right, Linux is compiled with FAT support as a module. I will keep trying to generate a SDCard with a /boot partition that is not FAT. Any ideas? BTW, I'm not doing any dd command to store the u-boot/MLO files at certain positions in the partition; instead, I'm just copying the files into the FAT partition. -- Sergio GPG key ID: 0x65FC5E36 Please send encrypted e-mail if possible http://sergiodj.net/ _______________________________________________ arm mailing list arm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/arm
