The kernel is not located on any of these TFFS partitions.

Also: if you flash your own kernel, you most certainly won't have a working iLiad anymore: no wired ethernet, no filesystem -> brick.
I'd hate to see you guys brick your iLiad, especially with all the development going on now...

tffsa3 is the extended partition, containing tffsa5-7. I'm not sure why fdisk skips tffsa4, when creating new partitions inside tffsa3, but it does. There is no "hidden tffsa4", trust me.
