I remember taking several tries to get it going initially, but now I can't work out why I had trouble. Press Aux and hold Press Power and hold Hear tick from speaker See red light flash on Aux See uBoot screen Release buttons Timing doesn't appear to be much of an issue so long as the Aux button is down when the power button is pressed. From pressing Power to uBoot screen is between 1 and 2 seconds. _______________________________________________ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
