2) It would be an interesting learning experience.

Not for everyone, of course, and I mean no disrespect to those who prefer to spend their time on other matters.
I am not sure I understand everything indicated by JPA.
JPA released in the second post the copy of the complete SD Card from which to start the reader. And so far OK.
The problem is that it is not clear to me how he changed the boot of the player.

Specifically when he says: To get recovery environment to boot, put rupor-rescue on the SD card partition 4 and then use this Python script to temporarily point uboot to load the rescue partition from SD card...

Partition 4? Why? Which SDCard is he referring to?
How put rupor-rescue on the SD card partition 4?
