Can the Compaq guys please send out a list of the flash partitions, their memory locations and sizes! I've asked for this a couple of times....It's now public that some units shipped with 32MB flash vs. 16 MB flash so their isn't anything to 'hide' per se.....I want to put-up some FAQ info as well as make some revised cramfs images, but I don't know the partition sizes, so I'm not sure how big I ca get them....(Or maybe I'm missing something?)..
