Hi Wolfgang,

Thanks for your comments on my patches.

Unfortunately, I seem to have toasted my board properly this time, and 
will not likely need them in future. I guess I will end up buying a 
different NAS next time (faster, bigger, cheaper), which will come with 
a different set of problems.

Thanks for all your help while I learned about U-Boot, JTAG, debugging, 
contributing, etc.

Regards,

Rogan
