Hello,

I did some kernel experiments lately and was tired of booting linux and reflashing kernel over USB cable so I finaly hacked flasher using mtd-utils that can be used directly on the device.

At first it looked like it should be easier than initfs flashing but later I found /dev/mtd2 is unfortunately marked as read only. I'm not sure why this is so. Especially when considering that mtd1 (config), mtd3 (initfs) and mtd4 (rootfs) partitions are writable so you can happily shoot yourself in the foot in multiple ways anyway.

Happy bricking :-)
