Hi!
The universal flasher doesn't start on my PRS500. When I insert the card, nothing happens.

I used it one year ago without problem. After 4 months I rebrik the reader and now I want to add the clock again...

To test if the card is ok, I added a book to the card and the reader recognize it and allow me to read it.

I checked the following:
The card is formated on FAT format.
.sh files have unix style (not DOS)
Tried with another card with the same result.
Reset the reader.

This is the content of the card root:
+bin
+calibre
+files
+Sony Reader
flash_opt.sh
libfskLoad.so
make_opt.sh

Anyone can help please?
Thanks!
