Configuration:
 SL-C860 with original SHARP NAND
Cards used: I normally flash from a 128MB CF card and have my target systems on SD. The SD is a 16GIG with partitions P1 altboot image-files, P2 swap, P3 Narcissus console, P4 Angstrom X11, P5 is extended with Ubuntu.


1) ======================================================================== =================
 All bootable partitions found for all three new Kexec' versions.

2) ======================================================================== =================
 Using Kexec 2.6.34-r4

 Decided to create the P4 Angstrom X11 system on a CF card.
 This failed, kexec did not find a bootable system .
 inserted both the 16GIG card and the CF card same results.
Kexec seems to have a problem with bootable CF cards inserted in the system. Works if CF is a Fat data card. Also rescan does not recover after CF card removed. Kexec needs to be rebooted to pick up the SD card.

======================================================================== ==================
 Using Kexec 2.6.34-r4

Second test tried flashing kexec from a 2GIG SD, using same target systems. Seem to recall that the Sharp Zaurus had a 1GIG limit for SD. and it does, this failed with SD card not found during the flash process.
this was for me more than anything else.

======================================================================== ===================
 Using Kexec 2.6.34-r4

Flashed from a 1Gig SD card and that worked with the same results as the first and second test above.
