What happens precisely? If you get several seconds of blinking green LED, and then nothing, you probably have the shell script installed but FBReader fails to launch for some reason (same as for me?). You can verify that you have the shell script many ways, simplest is probably to install one of the other applications (e.g. the terminal application, that is the one that I think always works).
Launching a shell script without the shell extension properly installed should give you one green blink of the LED and no delay (same as launching a word file, or anything that the iLiad doesn't support).
In order to debug your problem, you probably have to install dropbear and launch FBReader using SSH, then you get the error messages. Or perhaps you can launch FBReader from the terminal. This can be difficult if you are unfamiliar with Linux.
