Trying to use default images provided with FriendlyARM mini210s SBC.
Got the images from the DVDs that you can download on ftp.friendlyarm.net credentials at the bottom of this page under the mini210
folder.
- Prepare microSD using
SD-Flashed.exe
on Windows XP machine - Copied images folder onto the microSD

This FRIENDLYARM FORUM post suggests that the image is a MLC2 NAND image whereas the NAND is SLC. I have tried rebuilding the image using the rootfs
TAR but I am getting the same issue.
Any pointers are most welcome.
