Hmm are there any benefits to booting from an sd card? I think I would
prefer not to if possible.

Where do you guys get your snapshots? I think I would like to just reflash
the openmoko. These are the steps I originally took... Does anyone know if I
am actually doing it right?

1. download images from
http://buildhost.openmoko.org/OM2007.2/tmp/deploy/glibc/images/neo1973/?C=M;O=D

2. flashing kernel:
# sudo su
#  ./dfu-util -a kernel -d 0x1457:0x5119 -R -D
/home/lynn/moko/flash/uImage-2.6.22.5-moko11+svnr3238-r8-neo1973.bin

3. flashing rfs
# sudo ./dfu-util -a 5 -d 0x1457:0x5119 -R -D
/home/lynn/moko/flash/OpenMoko-openmoko-image-glibc-ipk-P1-Snapshot-20071121-fic-gta01.rootfs.jffs2


I noticed that on this, the time is never right, could it be because of the
images I got? Where can get the correct images if this is the case?

Also, where do people get their ipkg feeds? Like, what sources are listed in
your /etc/ipkg.conf and /etc/ipkg/*.conf files?

Setting up is always the hardest part... Thanks in advance!
