Subject: Updating the root partition

Hi,

I've got linux booting off of a cramfs partition sitting on mtdblock1. 
Is it possible to overwrite the mtdblock1 partition while linux is
running?  The kernel itself isn't located on the root partition.  I've
tried just copying a new cramfs image to /dev/mtd1 but I get errors on
decompressing next time I try and boot.

Cheers,
Chris
