CAP upgrades

There seems to be a bug in the way CAP handles firmware upgrades. Basically 
the box does:

Unlocking linux ...
Erasing linux ...
Writing from /tmp/firmware.bin to linux ... 

Then never comes back no matter how long you wait. A power reset of the box 
leaves it with the power led blinking and the box dead to the world..

OpenWRT images can normally upgrade themselves (including crossgrade to CAP) 
so I guess you must have broken something in the CAP image to stop this from 
working. Any ides what? :-(

Note. The only way to recover the box is to go through the tftp client 
proceedure..

Cheers
