So I ran down the memory of my cybook and then cocked up the connect to computer to recharge thing so that the SD card (and presumably) the internal flash are toast.
I've reformated the external SD card and downloaded b796fmt and installed following these instructions -
https://wiki.mobileread.com/wiki/Cybo...e_Library_Page - with no success. I know B796fmt worked because the SD card had the update_kernel file deleted and had the 3 folders created but the cybook still behaves the same way
Anyone got any further ideas? e.g. will B538 work and of so can anyone tell me how to get it? or is my best bet to contact Bookeen?
