Qtopia

[Peter Rasmussen]

What doesn't work is:

1.Boot with different kernel images
2.Boot into multiple images on the flashcard

I have before asked for info to:

1.Boot with kernel A into the NAND rootfs
2.Boot with kernel A into flash image in partition A (eg.: 
/media/card/imageA)
3.Boot with kernel B into flash image in partition B (eg.: 
/media/card/imageB)
4. Boot with kernel B into flash image in partition A (eg.: 
/media/card/imageA)
5. Boot with kernel A into flash image in partition B (eg.: 
/media/card/imageB)
6. etc.

Is it hard or does it have a very low priority?
For people doing testing it is important to be able to change only one 
part at the time.

Still only having a GTA01, so please make any basic progress work there, 
too.
