Howto fconfig redboot from shell

If there is a partition created between "kern2" and "RedBoot config" the fsg-3 can't manage the recovery procedure.
It seems "RedBoot" needs "RedBoot config" on MTD4 to get his IP&BootP and TFTP information to load the recovery image.

It looks like the recoverytool needs the RedBoot config at MTD4.

HowTo flash the Nightwing firmware using RedBoot

Lugro-Wireless Task Force - Redes de Despliegue rápido
RedBoot is a complete bootstrap environment for embedded systems. Based on the eCos Hardware Abstraction Layer. RedBoot has many features, including the use of the command line interface (CLI).

Through the CLI we can manipulate the flash memory of our device (in our case the router), we can also upload and download the images to flash memory through a tftp server.

Redboot can be access via a serial interface or Ethernet.
