Hey, I was looking everywhere, and I realized that the only way to get through that thing is to buy a cape and then try it. Which like you said is the exact opposite of what is said in the book. So I decided I can't trust the book :(. I was mostly doing it to learn how to interact with GPIO pins and learn some C. I have decided to use derek molloy's book which so far seems to be much more my needs. Also I noticed that the book was building on itself which made it harder for me to continue on. I hope this helps! Thanks, Ashwini Bhat
