Bill, I tried your advice and the .sh file doesn't fun. I am using Debian and the cpu monitor usage runs at 100% when I do this. But it fails to write anything to the sd card. After some back and forth with chipsee customer support, I received a message to update a line from --device) shift; device=$1; shift; ;; to --device) shift; device=$1p; shift; ;;
I am not that familiar with linux as one can tell, but it seems the change just "appends" a p to what ever I type for the device. I can upload a copy of the zip to dropbox or something if anyone wants to look at it.
