I've had success sending the maps from mapsource to device. I have not tried mkgmap --gmapsupp yet because my approach worked. Interesting enough without draw priority or transparency set.

::Make onetile SdAf Sea
java -ea -Xmx1000M -jar latest/mkgmap.jar^
 --tdbfile^
 --style-file=MySeaStyle^  
	(the default style with everything not coast / sea deleted and resolution 12)
 --description=SdAfSea1260^
 --product-id=0001^
 --overview-mapname=SdAfSeaOView1260^
 --mapname=10000000^
 --family-name=SdAfSea1260^
 --family-id=0001^
 --generate-sea^
 --ignore-osm-bounds^
 10000000.osm.gz   

::Make onetile SdAf Sea
java -ea -Xmx1000M -jar mkgmap-mdr-r1262.jar^
 --tdbfile^
 --description=SdAfSee1262^
 --product-id=0001^
 --overview-mapname=SdAfSeeOV1262^
 --mapname=10000000^
 --family-name=SdAfSee1262^
 --family-id=0001^
 --ignore-osm-bounds^
 --seriesname=SdAfSee^ 
	(makes selection in mapsource easier)
 --index^
 10000000.img

This second run is to create mdr & mdx to be able to send family to device
Most of the options are not needed, what is NB is: --index; Fam-name; fam-id & I think prod-id?
I run a separate compile for -index because the first run to make the img takes 1,5 hr and if something goes wrong I don't want to do everything over again.

My routable map I make like this:

::Make 4tile SdAf
java -ea -Xmx1000M -jar latest/mkgmap.jar^
 --name-tag-list=name:af,name^
 --tdbfile^
 --style-file=MyStyle^
 --description=SdAf4T1260^
 --product-id=0004^
 --overview-mapname=SdAf4TOView1260^
 --mapname=40000001^
 --family-name=SdAf4TFam1260^
 --family-id=0004^
 --Region-name="SARegion"^
 --remove-short-arcs^
 --route^
 --index^
 --road-name-pois^
 --seriesname=SdAf4T^ 
 10000001.osm.gz^
 10000002.osm.gz^
 10000003.osm.gz^
 10000004.osm.gz

I should have added the appropriate draw priorities & transparancy, but fotgot, and it works perfect on my Nuvi200W except that although the maps shows up as separate maps on the map info, it is not selectable as I expected.

Registry entry for mapsource:

Hope this helps you.
I will try again using Mkgmap --gmapsupp to see if I can get it to work that way, but will only be able to try it ovewr the weekend. Maybe in the mean time someone else can also tell us how they succeeded.
