Hi!

The first testing live-on-sd OpenInkpot distribution is available for Netronix EB600 devices (Samsung S3C2440, PVI Apollo, 64Mb RAM). I run it successfully on eSlick Foxit FE-01 (thanks goes to Marcel for donating the eSlick reader). This live version is known to work on Orsio b731 and Explay V3 devices.

The live-on-sd version doesn't touch internal memory and will run completly from SD card. It shouldn't break you hardware, but I cannot guarantee that.

HOWTO:
1. Download oi-netronix-eb600-live-xxxxxx.zip from http://openinkpot.org/pub/daily/ and unpack it to the SD card. (Put also some books on the SD card, the internal memory is not accessible in this version).
2. Insert the SD card and reboot the device.
3. Enjoy!

Don't remove the sd card while OpenInkpot is running. Press and hold power button for 2-3 seconds to poweroff the device. If you want to disable OpenInkpot, just remove or rename update_kernel script in the root directory of your sd card.

Since it's testing version, don't expect too much. Some functions may be unavailable or do not behave properly.

You can access the sd card via usbnet. Usb mass storage mode is not available yet.

Audio doesn't work. USB 2.0 doesn't work.

Feedback is welcome.
