I tried your patches for the kernel and they worked!  Thank you.  I 
don't understand, though, why didn't my patches work.  They are 
very similar.  Perhaps I initialized MTD too late, or something like 
that.  Maybe I'll look into it.

However, whenever I try to write to the flash without nftl_formating it 
first, I get errors.  And I still wasn't able to boot from the flash.  
LILO starts loading, but gets stuck either at LI or LIL-.  Oh well.  I 
don't understand why it works for you, but doesn't for me.  I also 
keep getting file system corruption.

Thanks for the help.
