is it possible to make the FreeRunner act like a regular media storage
device ? The inherent question is how to specify which file or partition
would be mapped to this simulated device.
I thought that no, but it seems the opposite:
I think it's related to the screen blanking (maybe it's not actually

thoroughly yet.
If you have illume-config-illume installed, try setting a larger suspend

It should be possible by doing the partitioning yourself, and then
