# Unpack to obtain the V3update.bin file
# Copy this file to the root directory of the SD card. Use plain SD formatted with FAT16 - SDHC, MMC, and FAT32 cards won't work. The bootloader is not able to address beyond 1Gb, so either use a card with less than 1Gb storage, or make sure whole file is in first 1Gb of card (e.g. by formatting it).
Note that this is for the Hanlin V3 (EZ Reader Basic), not the V5 (Pocket Pro), and applies equally to any firmware (not just OpenInkPot). In addition, this may be out of date, although I don't think the bootloader is updated once the device leaves the factory (the point of a bootloader is to boot no matter what, so it isn't messed with usually). In any case, it can't hurt to follow these instructions.
