I can boot it now! I wonder how the hell someone should find out about this tweak though. I'm able to boot the kernel via TFTP and world from NFS. I found that my 1G external SD/MMC card is recognized by the kernel as da1s1 and the internal NAND flash shows up as da0s1 after formatting. Currently I'm trying to install world on the internal NAND, but it seems to be extremely slow for writes, so it's taking ages to untar the tarball. I've also tried to get the kernel down to 700KB to be able to put it on the NOR flash, but no chance. So next step is to find out how to load loader through u-boot and hopee that it's able to recognize the SD card or the internal NAND to boot from it. Mat
