Why so many inconsistencies??<br />
<br />
My Overo does not work the way the instructions are worded at all. Let me list some of the items which don't work as instructed on the Gumstix website:<br />
<br />
A) There is no "/dev/sde1" microSD card. My Overo names it "/dev/mmcblk0". This is the default name after i bought it. I did not modify it in anyway. A big source of confusion.<br />
<br />
B) "apt-get" is an unrecognized command on my Overo.<br />
<br />
C) The instructions say "Android in Four Commands" - yet "git" is an unrecognized command. Is there a prerequisite to the four commands? Why didn't mine come with "git"? <br />
<br />
D) "opkg update" fails to download anything because it can't find the repositories. Why does the default refer to "unstable gumstix" paths anyway?!!<br />
<br />
E) I can only assume these problems exist because I received an old image in the NAND. However these are instructions for upgrading the image. How can we get off the starting block?!<br />
<br />
Gumstix looks like a good product, however these are serious problems. The community will only benefit and flourish when the are resolved. Or did I get a bum Gumstix? Unfortunately there is no phone number of anyone to talk to readily available. I have to say poor customer support for Gumstix.<br />
<br />
Please help!<br />
