@underscore, you can not mount uImage-initramfs, as it's compressed kernel with initramfs.

Also, you cannot brick device without overwriting two kernels (basic one, and second used for updates). Even then, you can reflash your Boox using MFG tool.

@Feher, as I mentioned in other thread, Obuntu is designed to work in two modes :

I'm writing directly to epdc framebuffer, also I used imx xorg display driver instead of fbdev.

Scren updates are handled by screen_updater daemon, which constatnly refreshes screen at 1bpp (~300ms) or 4bpp (~900ms). Moreover, it can be configured to check which parts of screen changed and perform partial update.
I need to write gui control panel which will use domain sockets or dbus to change screen_updater preferences...
Default username and password can be found in first post.

Personally I use parted for partitioning SD card, and extract rootfs contents on Linux machine, NOT on Boox directly.
