Hi,
i suggest to add this line
root@linux printf \x9d\x2a\x44\x7b|dd of=/dev/sdX bs=1 count=4 seek=440 to
the instructions to install mer image on wetab.
[http://dict.leo.org/ende?lp=endep=_xpAAsearch=shouldn%27ttrestr=0x8040]
shouldn't be necessary for basysKom Mer/MeeGo based Wetab/ExoPC images.
Those image are already affected by a
'printf \x9d\x2a\x44\x7b | dd of=${IMAGE} bs=1 count=4 seek=440 conv=notrunc'
But a useful hint for others.
Cheers

For mere mortals, what does this do? (It's always a good idea to note that, since not everybody in a multi- disciplinary team has the same domain knowledge.) this command modifies the ID inside the partition table. This kind of hack is needed because a WeTab without patched bios do only like to start from a internal recovery partition after using the recovery grip. This hex number is the identifier of the internal recovery partition and by this we are able to install from a external flash drive.

I writed 1 year ago on http://wiki.meego.com/Installing_MeeGo_Tablet_Developer_Preview_on_WeTab_Tablet BR Nicola All images provided by basyskom boot and install just fine on my WeTab, the same goes for the WeTab-optimized Balsam image. The only case where I had to apply the hack was when I installed from a regular OpenSUSE image, so we're fine if we put it in the instructions for that one.
