No, not yet.  Also, something about how I copied the new kernel and 
modules onto one of my existing partitions has resulted in me no longer 
being able to boot the older kernel on that partition either 
(3.7.0-offmode-gta04+).

On the other hand, I can still boot other partitions on the same SD 
card, so presumably the process of flashing the latest u-boot to NAND 
was successful.

To be clear, my setup is:
- P1: Replicant
- P2: QtMoko
- P3: My own userspace, with 3.7.0 and 3.16-rc2 kernels.
- P4: Extended
- P5: Shared media
and I can now boot P1 and P2 but not P3.

I haven't had time yet to investigate further.  Also I really need a 
serial cable setup - both for this and if I'm going to start playing 
with kernels that might not fully boot yet.  Possibly though my P3 
problem is nothing to do with flashing; it might be that I overfilled 
the partition when copying on the new kernel and modules, and something 
on the filesystem got lost or corrupted.
