[Soekris] Has anyone ever gotten m0n0Wall loaded on the Soekris net4526-30?

[David Witten]

No, but I will try it now. 

My frustration has been getting the better of me and I  misunderstood 
how specifically your notes addressed my problem.  I felt as things 
began to work that I was making progress.  But I really can't understand 
how it can be possible to partition the flash and it is definitely hard 
to tell where my seemingly successful dd's to flash were really going.  
I really don't understand ho m0n0 1.1 boots without a fstab either.  
Life holds many mysteries.
