opkg upgrade manages this so I'd say you could ... using a tool like mtd or such, I really don't how, just that it does :) You obviously still have to reboot. I read somewhere that there should be the ability in linux down the track to actually do a 'live update' without a reboot. That'd be interesting and useful on a slow booting device :) Sarton _______________________________________________ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
