I did this and installed a new file system (OpenMoko-openmoko-devel-image-glibc-ipk-P1-September-Snapshot-20070917-fic-gta01.rootfs.jffs2). I think it's happier, but I still have issues (I don't mind right now, I'm just trying to see how this thing works). As I understand it, the rootfs file does not contain the Linux operating system. I'll be looking at the wiki, but how do I replace the os now that I have a good file system? Thanks! George
