I guess you didn't boot from NOR-uBoot, or you have changed your NOR-uBoot (or 
the env there). The original procedure as described on all the wiki pages and 
inside package README is proven to work for original NOR-uBoot and uSD cards 
smaller some magic limit I forgot the exact size of, maybe 1GB.

anyway thanks for reporting, glad it worked for you, enjoy MOKO11! I dunno 
about wiki admins, isn't it a wiki and thus should be editable by registered 
users at least?
If you have problems with the wiki, contact LaF0rge aka Harald Welte please, 
he's running the whole infra now.

cheers
