Ok, I have looked through the mailing list archives and the only email
I found says:
"this is a known issue on 2.6.18 kernels caused by the MTD layer
rework. You'll have to do some code hacking to speed things up."
Is the *patch* you were referring to? Do you have other emails or
references which help me to understand the problem and the hack
required?
Thanks
