Sounds like it, yes. The asset partition should have been saved by
BootBlaster when you originally installed. However, the asset
information is not especially significant to Linux, so there is no need
to restore it unless and until you reinstall PocketPC on that machine.

It appears that the bootldr is not managing to pass partition
information into Linux for some reason, and the kernel is falling back
to its compiled-in defaults. Do you have "mtdparts=..." in the kernel
command line as reported by dmesg?
