Hi Damaru, I just wanted to say:
Since I saw your post originally on make magazine's page I've been excited to replicate your success. I love e-Ink displays and my Pi definitely was in need of some command line display action.
I've been writing a big blog post to walk people through the install process in excruciating detail. I hope that you will gain some from my post!
Here's my detailed guide, I hope to be done with it this week:

Thanks again damaru for the inspiration.
