A hitch after the fact:
I deleted the flasher off of my SD card after successfully installing it on my reader. Later I loaded some books on the card to transfer to the reader; when I inserted the card, the flasher's install screen appeared. I hit 7 for "switch to firmware update mode" and received the following error message:
error copying libfskLoad to /tmp/
That screen stays in place for a second, and then a screen appears that reads
Run script
If this message stays for a long time, something went wrong.
--followed by the flasher's ordinary instructions. That message does stay a long time, but if I hit MENU it disappears. This happens every time I insert my SD card.
Any advice would be appreciated.
