And here is the text in the file called 'Install.sh' which I suspect is
what I need to apply in some way to the SD card but that is where I am
stuck...
Install softaware code 'Install.sh':

# September, 1 2010 v1.0.0, willisTang

# Add make_drv to select chip type

Sorry for all this text! - I hope it makes more sense to you than it
does to me! :D:D
