When I add geom_redboot into kernel, I see /dev/redboot directory with flash parts, but I have no idea how to read them - dd if=/dev/redboot/<something> gives just an error and no data are read... Is some special tool necessary for that? I would like to make a backup copy of flash, just in case... Also, there is a pin header marked UART, just opposite to RS232 connector. I would expect it to be a second serial interface, maybe, but I found no mention about it yet... Has anybody an answer? Regards, Milan
