@fekhner, thank you. Your answer made me wonder -- are updates really per SD, not per device? E.g. let's say I have 10 SD cards, so I have ten times update the firmware?

@pthwaite, this is incorrect in two ways. DR1000 has to read Fat16 because the default iRex card is Fat16. Second, as it was posted in some places, iRex is capable reading 16 GB card and maybe (just one source, wiki) 32 GB card. Even in case of 16GB it means Fat32.

Anyway, for now, I put the latest update on the card, booted DR, and DR thinks a lot, just like with first boot with empty card (it is not updating anything, led is just blinking). When I copied all the stuff from 1GB card instead of update, it started correctly, recognized the card, recognized capacity and free space, but didn't displayed any books.
