Hello,

I just got my iliad, and tried following these instructions. I connected to iDS, it downloaded firmware 2.12 (software build number 21201), and I downloaded the developer package and the iliad rebooted automatically. I then got mrxvt v0.1, and have tried v0.2, v0.3, v0.4. I put them on my root folder, navigate to that folder and try to execute. When I try, the progress bar at the bottom moves, and the screen refreshes after about 1 second, but nothing has happened.

Is this a problem with:
1) firmware 2.12?
2) not having the developer package installed properly?
3) mrxvt?
4) other?

How do I know if the developer package/shell access is on my system? How do I find out what the problem is? How do I get mrxvt working?

Thank you,
Ben
