Woot - I'm trying the opkg update ; opkg upgrade approach now. I look forward to the improvements a lot.
One question - is the 'bind-home' approach documented somewhere? Both google and searching on the wiki haven't helped me find info on how to set this up. I've actually got om2009 on my sd-card right now, so it isn't something I need right away - but I think I'm getting confident enough in OM2009 that I'll soon ditch the QtE install I've been keeping for 'emergencies' on the built-in flash.
