Hello thedan
HOW did you managed to work through this issue? I am still receiving the blkmtd error :-(
Here is my kernel command line (per Soekris Port page):
Kernel command line: block2mtd.block2mtd=/dev/hda2 root=/dev/mtdblock0 rootfstype=jffs2 init=/etc/preinit noinitrd console=ttyS0,38400 reboot=bios
Unknown boot option `block2mtd.block2mtd=/dev/hda2': ignoring
I've also tried with
block2mtd=/dev/hda2
block2mtd.blockmtd=/dev/hda2
blockmtd=/dev/hda2
all without success
The IDE chip seems to be detected:

I am using the x86-2.6 nico's testing package on a WRAP1E1 with 2 LAN, 2 minipci slots.
Any help, FAQs, even pointers to RTFM would be greatelly appreciated
Cheers,
