There is something I wanted to ask since I ce back to using pCP few months ago. Will rt-kernel ever come back? I always felt it sounded better (not only with pCP but also with Daphile). Another option would be to offer a way to load custom kernels (a script?). Thanks a lot.

Well it certainly works fine on another PCP with a screen: 35359 Though the boot says PCPCore-v7. But on my other one, fsck still shows incorrect free counts, which I'd assumed fsck would correct. Code: tc@PCP-XLR-LMS:~$ e2fsck -n /dev/mmcblk0p2 e2fsck 1.45.6
