Well, did it also clear it? hopefully not.... no way to check but reboot and see if it comes back alive....

...and it did (phewwww....)

Now I need to experiment a bit with that if I can get anything worthwhile out of it.
Too bad there's probably no source available for softupd.
Oh man, that's living on the edge! I actually thought it'd go and flash_erase stuff.

Sounds more like it was preparing the in-memory mappings for MTD partitions for flashing.

IIRC, what it does is open up an interface over USB to accept flash images, then does any tidying up after flashing.

Can't wait to see what you come up with - recovering from a flat battery on every Nxxx device is a pain!
