Attached patch fixes partition table of the Zaurus PROM. It works on
terrier, but I guess it is common for all Zaurus models.

The partition marked "Boot PROM Filesystem" is a fact a database file
for EN-JP dictionary. Designers decided to put the English-Japanese
translation dictionary to the remaining part of the PROM.

Changes:

Newly mapped the bootloader system as "Boot PROM System".

Already mapped EN-JP dictionary changes its name from "Boot PROM
Filesystem" to "EN-JP Data File".

How to verify the layout on other models:
root at zaurus:~# modprobe physmap
root at zaurus:~# file -s /dev/mtd4
/dev/mtd4: DBase 3 data file (1031668283 records)
