Dear Martin, thank you very very much for being so Kind! And thank you to all of you for your work!
Your suggestions where precious - and I will look at the referenced device. In the meantime, I was taking a look at the flash layout. Luckily, it seems EVA will allow me to boot from RAM, which will be very useful. Still, I am trying to understand as much as possible about this device before making any change. First of all - I backed up all partitions using nanddump, except for those marked as 2out of reach" in dmesg, which are not readale by nanddump. I used something like nanddup -f file /dev/mtd<partition> Secondly, I was looking at EVA environment, which is as follows: HWRevision 198 HWSubRevision 1 ProductID Fritz_Box_HW198 SerialNumber 0000000000000000 annex A autoload yes bootloaderVersion 1.1787 bootserport tty0 country 039 cpufrequency 500000000 firstfreeaddress 0x81113040 firmware_info 126.06.83 firmware_version avme flashsize nor_size=0MB sflash_size=256KB nand_size=128MB language it linux_fs_start 1 maca 5C:49:79:DB:93:0C macb 5C:49:79:DB:93:0D macwlan 5C:49:79:DB:93:0E macdsl 5C:49:79:DB:93:0F memsize 0x08000000 modetty0 38400,n,8,1,hw modetty1 38400,n,8,1,hw mtd0 0x400000,0x3400000 mtd1 0x0,0x400000 mtd2 0x0,0x20000 mtd3 0x20000,0x30000 mtd4 0x30000,0x40000 mtd5 0x0,0x200000 my_ipaddress 192.168.178.1 prompt Eva_AVM provider wind_3272_12082013 req_fullrate_freq 250000000 sysfrequency 250000000 tr069_passphrase TFX1HhthwN6T tr069_serial 00040E-5C4979DB930C urlader-version 2787 usb_board_mac 5C:49:79:DB:93:10 usb_device_id 0x0000 usb_device_name USB DSL Device usb_manufacturer_name AVM usb_revision_id 0x0000 usb_rndis_mac 5C:49:79:DB:93:11 wlan_key ?????????????????????? (wlankey omitted). I am not able to understand the general syntax for mtd partitions - e.g.: it seems the bootloader uses completely different partition layout). I don't think I'll need to alter those partitions, but I am better in understanding their definitions should something go wrong in the wrong moment. :) Thanks again, and sorry for the late answer.
