Hi Martin, I had it working more than a year ago with the LCD and touch
drivers I extracted from the 2013 DVD.  I cocked a customized image because
there was no debian at that time. I did not check the latest DVD but I know
it got debian and several other flavors. If your DVD dose not have it then
I think chipsee customers support should be able to share it with you I
think. They are very friendly.

Regarding the mkcard scripts.. I doubt the partition is auto mounted. And
device writing apps cant go with mounted partitions.
