SHR goes well with GTA01. FSO probably too, but I have not tried it lately.<br>
You can the lite image from flash. But you even have to remove cruft<br>
before you can install gllin. The space constrains are really heavy.<br>
<br>
I run SHR from SD. Kernel from Flash because uboot can not load from SDHC<br>
on GTA01. Rootfs on SD.<br>
Please be aware of possibley very misleading informations regardng boot<br>
from SD on the wiki! Some frerunner users seem to disregard GTA01 issues<br>
and delete or change them one in a while. ;)<br>
Stay away from Qi, it has no DFU mode and you have no secondary bootloader.<br>
Be arware of diferent mtd 'partitions' on GTA01<br>
<a href="http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Neo_1973_Partitions" target="_blank">http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Neo_1973_Partitions</a><br>
<br>
All these issues are pretty comprehensively described here:<br>

<br>
And if you don't wish to use your SD for rootfs, please just ignore my<br>
random facts. They are not important. ;)<br>
