Hey Guys, just got my JBL a few days ago.

I'm thrilled with it, but I'm also interested in how much progress has been made in booting other firmwares on the JB/JBL/Libre platform. I've done some searches, and saw some progress being made, that the jetbook can run libre firmware and vice versa (with some modifications), etc., but it's been quite some time since some noise has been made in this direction.

So, can the people who were working on getting a bootloader up and running on the jetbook, or anyone else that has been playing around with the JB's internals chime in here? I'd love to get an idea of where things are.
