Hi everyone,
I've been trying to beat a M-Systems, DOC2000, 384MB chip into
working with the mtd drivers, and using grub to boot. For some reason that I havn't been able to localize, the installation of grub fails ( failing on one of the erase lines ). Since this is under version 2.4.27 of the linux kernel, I thought there might be some incompatabilities with pre-2.6 kernels. I suspect something in the ../util/doc_loadbios call doesn't like the inftl chip.

So ... what I'm asking is, does anyone have a M-Systems DOC, over 256MB in size, running a 2.4.something kernel, using grub to boot? If so, would you please let me know the part number, so I can go get some?

Thanks alot!
Chris
