well, best copy it in with a different name. Well and I should probably generate a new map with Mapsource using different FID, then there will be no caching enacted. Another reason, why the Mapsource generated map maybe didn't work, was that you had no GPS reception (yet)??? I noticed that with all mkgmap generated maps (in comparison to Garmin CN maps which don't have this problem) without GPS reception, address search doesn't work (or I ran into some caching here, but this seemed to be consistent).

So for you the address index in BOTH gmapsupp.img is working?? (and it's the only map on the etrex 30)?
The mkgmap created gmapsupp won't break address search of other maps for me, but it doesn't work on itself.
I might be on to something...
I'll just say what happened with your maps that I downloaded today.
1. Copied gmapsupp_mkgmap.img to an SD card and put it in my eTrex 30: didn't work.
2. Copied gmapsupp_mapsource.img to SD card: also didn't work !?
3. Disabled the map (the mapsource generated one)
3a. Tried to search with the map disabled - crashed. (don't suppose this is relevent but mentioned for completeness).
4. Enabled the map (the mapsource generated one) - now works!
So it seems like there is some memory or caching of previous maps which is fixed by disabling & enabling the map.
When I was trying the mkgmap maps, I was also messing about disabling and enabling the basemaps and I suspect that was why it was eventually working.
I'm about to investigate further with mkgmap map now.
