Well I finally updated to the new reader version, but now when I try to flash for the clock and joystick hacks, I get the message error copying mcopy to /tmp/. Note this process worked fine on last version

sometimes this happens on step 5 and sometimes it happens on step 6 after step 5 has successfully created image. I have 3 books in the reader and none on the sd card. Any ideas?

edit: the reader has 86 megs of capacity

edit2: evidently when I switched sd cards i neglected to format the sd card to fat, but did to fat32. Afer a reformat of sd card all is well.
