I'm just taking this opportunity to tell you how much your work is
appreciated. Although I have moved on to Damien's Flashboot mainly
because of the ramdisk and remote update features, flashdist was what
was needed to help me over the threshold.

Looking forward to future updates.

Thanks, Rickard.

PS. And just so that nobody feels left out, thanks to everybody involved
for bringing us this excellent operating system.
