Please can someone with access to the system provide a flash-kernel stanza for the system. After installing the flash-kernel package /usr/share/doc/flash-kernel/README.gz will contain documentation for (most of) the possible stanza entries and /usr/share/flash-kernel/db/all.db will have plenty of examples. For testing a stanza can be added to /etc/flash-kernel/db. From http://jamie.lentin.co.uk/devices/dlink-dns325/keeping-original-firmware/ it looks like you can boot from both NAND and the regular disk/MMC, I'd be inclined to go with installing to NAND by default, which would mean using the Mtd-Kernel/Initrd style of entries. Ideally things would be setup to work without the need to enter all the u-boot runes referenced on those webpages.
