That is very surprising indeed. I will get TCL to check that the one I
am building works/fails. In the meantime I have built the small versions
of 30/31/32/33 and put then in the dev branch of releases on husaberg
for you to test. If you find one that works and another that doesn't it
will give a clue. Do call me on 01954 719270 if you want to talk.

The whole point about bootldr.small is that it knows about NOR and
serial and nothing else so it should work with any loon2.

Nearly a Zafira. Checking suitabilty (ie not raging unsuitability) for
eldest daughter learning to drive in it was successful. Now to hunt the
right one down.
