Re: A2DP direct?
Daniel A few specialized bluetooth adapters have a2dp encoding/decoding that executes on-chip. These are typically embedded in a headset or a transmitter dongle. FR does not use one of these chips, so it has to happen on the cpu. There are a few bt headphones that have mp3 decoders on board and there's been some work to make the gstreamer plugin take advantage of it. That would sidestep the issue nicely by sending the raw mp3 straight to the headphones if it were worked out completely.

Re: neo1973 does not power on.
That sounds very likely what I did. I will check the fstab entry on the sd card, but I'm almost certain it was mtdblock0. On the minus side this means I will definitely need a debug board, but at least it is highly likely to not be a waste of money and effort. Thanks.

I create the environment with uboot-envedit (I prepare it on the desktop PC
and just copy the binary over to the Freerunner and write it to the flash).
I have no "ro" after $mtd_parts and just "uImage.bin" in the root-directory
instead of "/boot/uImage.bin".

Yes, and all 4 partitions work. Notice that mmcblk0p6 also starts beyond
the 4 GB that Andy mentioned. Try to make the first 3 partitions 1 GB only
(your last message has just arrived while I was writing this).

\${mtdparts} ro\; mmcinit\; ext2load mmc 0:2 0x3200 /boot/uImage\;

\${mtdparts} ro\; mmcinit\; ext2load mmc 0:4 0x3200
/boot/uImage.bin\; bootm 0x3200
Right now, you are able to boot from your partitions 1, 2, 3 and 6 ?
I will reformat my fat partition into ext2 and test again.
