I'm slightly concerned that the older code works when the newer code doesn't - it's supposed to work the other way round.

Such as, where does an 80k stage2 go when the DOC > firmware region only holds 48k? ) It doesn't work perfectly yet, although it shouldn't take much to fix it. To make it fit, you have to use nftl_format to make the NFTL start further in to the device. -- dwmw2
