Hi Nick,
> flash_erase /dev/mtd0 0 224
...
> flash_erase /dev/mtd0 0 16
It always mtd0. There's too much repetition in the code so errors like
this are likely to creep in. Consider the approach I suggested in
https://nam03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.earth.li%2Fpipermail%2Fe3-hacking%2F2019-April%2F001314.html&data=02%7C01%7C%7C3698329065b24dc1983108d6c8a3522f%7C84df9e7fe9f640afb435aaaaaaaaaaaa%7C1%7C0%7C636917001111275025&sdata=6HxFeGP9mAKyYCGbBLR%2FyibGpJ5zDrlJKtEwH%2FpuZdk%3D&reserved=0
Then the `0' of mtd0, etc., it only typed once.

Cheers, Ralph.
