Hi, just got the gear for two hours but with the current soft is pretty unstable, the player keeps hanging so I have to power-reset it, or it reboots (just the player soft, not the OS?)
That's happening mainly when I switch tracs or select a new playlist. Here is the serial out:
empeg-car bootstrap v1.00 20000601 (hugo@empeg.com)
If there is anyone present who wants to upgrade the flash, let them speak now,
or forever hold their peace...it seems not. Let fly the Penguins of Linux!

Actually, the last two lines are happening (VM: killing....) when the empeg seem to reboot. Most of the time when switching tracks. When it completely hangs, there is no additional output on the serial, I just had to power reset.
Thanks very much, J.
