I saw your PTF file, are you using a custom board?

Here's what I thought I saw:

(1) User Configuration starts at 0x200000

(2) Factory Configuration starts at 0x500000

The kernel currently uses the first 2 megs of memory (0x0 -> 0x200000). The filesystem normally starts at 0x200000 until the first configuration found.

In your case, that means a 0 length filesystem.

Do you have any free space *after* the user and factory configurations in flash? If you do then I'll need to create a patch for you. It currently assumes that factory configurations are normally at the end of flash.
