I'm going crazy with that problem!

When boards nand is erased, and you insert the recovery sd from btm website then the miner will start, but the mtd is not avail and for that the upgrade with the web frontend can't could not do this job.

Also the included, uenv.txt on the fx. 625 img will not work, because it will write into a none existing / mounted mtd.

There is missing something! But what?

Are you able to access the board over SSH/serial? What happens when you cat /proc/mtd? You should see something similar to:

dev:    size   erasesize  name
mtd0: 00020000 00020000 "spl"
mtd1: 00020000 00020000 "spl_backup1"
mtd2: 00020000 00020000 "spl_backup2"
mtd3: 00020000 00020000 "spl_backup3"
mtd4: 001c0000 00020000 "u-boot"
mtd5: 00020000 00020000 "bootenv"
mtd6: 00020000 00020000 "fdt"
mtd7: 00500000 00020000 "kernel"
mtd8: 01400000 00020000 "root"
mtd9: 01400000 00020000 "config"
