I'm sure you managed to brick your 1973, I did it myself last january, with 
the same result making it a /dev/null for charge.

I mounted /dev/mtdblock0 by accident instead of /dev/mtdblock4 (I had a bad 
$mtdparts on the sd entry) and jffs2 reclaimed some unused space. This could 
happen as resulto of this action (in the head message):

the answer to your question in the previous message:
>2) Will the newer Debug board that comes with the GTA02 work with the GTA01? 

Is acording to the wiki YES, see http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Debug_Board_v3
