I'm using a kernel from 30 July, and my SD card is removed. I'm using the
rootfs that came with the phone.

(Actually, I've tried several other images, including ASU, but they didn't
work either. So I've reverted to the Freerunner release image, but with the
recent kernel mentioned. On a sidenote: gsm isn't working either. But
for the moment I'm blaming that on my simcard. :-/ )
